California gubmint sez ... You can't buy a gas powered car ... also ... You can't plug in your electric car
🧠 These people are stupid!
And THAT is exactly the scheme.
California will suffer an energy shortage and “Flex Alerts” through Labor Day due to high temperatures, and residents will be asked to conserve electricity during afternoons and evenings, which means refraining from charging electric vehicles, among other uses.
There was a video recently of an Aussie who said he owned a house that he rented out for Air BnB. He said one of the guests had an electric car, that she plugged in overnight.
He had an app on his phone, which showed him the electric usage skyrocketed overnight, while the car was being charged.
He said that it used 200 kw of power for the charge. He also said that such usage could power a small strip center.
A few days later, I happen to have met a man who is a consultant to power companies. I told him this story, and he confirmed that those numbers sound right.
There is ZERO chance that "all electric" could ever work.
And [they] know this. That, or they are too stupid to run a lemonade stand, much less a power grid.
200kw = 240v * 833 amps!! No chance that Airbnb has 1000amp service. Realistic home charging is 11kw max.
Maybe he meant 200kwh. That is only double a typical high capacity battery and could happen over multiple days.
Could be. Maybe I heard it wrong, but I do remember the 200 and the kilowatt parts. Though, he did say it was overnight, not several days.
I don't think EVs charge on 120v - multiply by 2

only with nuclear power, and even then electric cars have a lot of drawbacks that make them way inferior to gas powered vehicles.
Well if they take out the people grid it could work.
