2030 - 8 years from now.

Currently, 3.4% of light-duty (passenger vehicles in the U.S.A.), and far less globally, are electric.

In the past 20 years, the annual growth in energy generation (i.e. total electricity consumption, or load, and system losses) has averaged 30 TWh, and while the last decade has seen less than 5 TWh added each year, historically, there have been periods when the grid added nearly 100 TWh per year [12]. Periods of highest energy generation growth included expansions to baseload generation from nuclear and fossil sources at a time when the policy environment allowed for necessary investment.

Nuclear generation, as well as coal and natural gas plants are off the table cause they are icky.

In 8 years, both Canada and California will not allow a new car to be sold unless it is electric. Biden very loosely ‘mandated’, federally (i believe last year), that 50% of all new passenger vehicles sold
In the U.S.A will be electric by 2030, with 100% by 2035.

California doubled down by nixing any form of hydrocarbon based heat, and setting deadlines for trucking to become electric.

Will someone, anyone, tell me where this electricity will be generated?

Has earth been broken on a few thousand 3,000 megawatt fission facilities i am unaware of?

I would like to proclaim as it seems with many other political issues (gun rights, abortion, health, covid, grooming) that we have begun a new Age of Thought - the Age of Irrationality . As long as it polls good amongs the indoctrinated we will develop
the most self-destrcutive, asanine policy position we can conceieve.

My apologies for the Rant,
Sorry a pissed off Canadian.
