[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]Because electricity to my home for lights and refrigerators is more important than your sitting in traffic with your Tesla. I mean transportation is important, but when push comes to shove, there is so much wasted energy running around that people can easily prioritize. But plugging in that EV sends energy bills through the roof.[/quote] Like the earlier poster, we are charging with electricity generated by our solar panels. So, no impact on your electrical bill. Moreover, home charging can be scheduled for the middle of the night when very little electricity is being used. EVs are really impacting your electrical bill. But wait until you hear about all the data centers that are being built. [/quote] I call virtue signaling BS. I grew up on a solar/wind powered farm. There is no way you are living in DC and charging a tesla to any substantive amount. It takes acres of panels, and you'd still end up only driving a couple days a week. We knew people that tried to do it. It would be an ecological disaster to do that at scale. Shame on you.[/quote] What are you talking about? First of all, I don't have a Tesla. My solar panels are a 9.20 kW system. It can easily charge a car. You probably are not familiar with modern technology. Panels have improved a lot in recent years. So, shame on you. [/quote]
