Comment on Solar power surpasses coal in EU for first time

In Belgium a lot of cars are basically part of compensation from employers ; furthering the use of those for overnight storage would make plenty of sense and be an easy way to kickstart the initiative a low cost for the users and would put a positive twist on those compny cars.

China and Europe are probably going to be fully electric sooner than the rest of the world. Getting there is already quite a task for the entire production chain. Ramping it up will take decades, and I’m still not entirely sure we even have the resources for it.

Yeah it seems to pick up traction and accelerate as of late; more and more new cars are EVs, charging stations are blooming everywhere even in my backward ardennes… so at least for us there seems to be enough resources. Fuck the poors thought because cheap EVs are still not affordable enough but that’s not the point we’re discussing. And the rest of the world we’ll see. But if this is part of the solution it’s happening and it’s nice.
