re: The more you know about EV the more you wonder if we were really ready for this change.

EVs are a convenience for those who can afford it, for city travel.
And not just afford the car. Afford solar panels to power it and your home during outages.
We aren't close to where it needs to be to become viable for the masses.
Mandating it like California, is insane. But these are the same folks who mandated Covid jabs.

People in California love their cars. I can see some push back on this mandate. And there isn't enough charging infrastructure to justify it there in the first place.

I don't see how solar panels can charge a Level 2/3 vehicle's battery. Or even a portable generator can't provide enough voltage for the actual charge point port of today's EV lithium ion. Even if you get an adapter to 115v level 1, the amount of charge from say even a 15kw generator would be like 1 to 2 miles charge every hour...if you're lucky. This is a common misconception with EV's, thinking all you need is just a power source like generators to charge...much more complicated than that.
