@the_wokemove: Ever wondered where the energy actually comes from when you plug in an electric vehicle? This candid conversation pulls back the curtain on the grid realities that often get ignored. While EVs are marketed as the future of clean energy, the source of that charge—often coal or natural gas—tells a much more complicated story about power generation, renewables, and the limitations of wind and solar. It’s a sobering look at the infrastructure behind the hype. #ElectricVehicles #CleanEnergy #RenewableEnergy #EVCharging #EnergyGrid
A large coal power plant charging electric cars is still better than 1000s of gas power plants running around town.

Electric Vehicles use more fossil fuels than gas and diesel cars

You seem confused. Why do you care what’s charging the car. We buy it because it’s cheap to operate.

I don’t own a Tesla to save the environment. I own it bc it’s cheaper than gas and more convenient

Don’t worry they added wind and solar…it just doubled our bills in 4 years

Well if this is Texas then the current fuel mix is 90% renewable sources powering the entire state

People forget, at the same time, regardless renewable or fossil fuels producing the power, overall, if EVs are widespread, our entire grid has to be updated to handle that draw on power before EVs can be truly a household commodity, until then and the cost effectiveness and batteries, it remains a novelty for those who can afford it.

Do you want to have fun with this concept…….? Require all EVs to charge by ONLY solar or wind power. This entire concept will collapse with in two years. 😎

wind and solar can only generate a fraction of what coal can. you'd have to cover half your state w windmills and solar panels to be comparable to what current coal energy can produce.
