An article in the Time son Saturday suggested that if all vehicles in London were EVs they would need 5 times as much power as the London Underground system. Extrapolated on a national basis this would mean the equivalent of 20 new nuclear plants. A massive grid upgrade would be needed as well.
Petrol and diseasel will be around for a while yet.
er, the Underground stops a bit after midnight you know........ and doesn't start till about 5.30 am, so there's at least 5 hours when all of london's EVs can use it's power.........Petrol and diseasel will be around for a while yet.
(and of course, few of those EVs will actually be completely flat, what with the average speed in london being about 7mph, meaning you'd have to be driving for about 10 hours a day to flat even a 1st gen EV)
