Looks like an failure all round. As Burt Reynolds once said, ‘this is gonna be fun’!
Lots of bad/expensive ideas out there.
Baaaaa!
One word: Solyndra
….but it ‘felt’ like the right thing to do…
the emissions from creating the prototypes alone will keep all that gadgetry from being carbon neutral for many decades
the “Zero Emission” future these morons tout is not in any way achievable. in order to have zero emissions, you would have to have a perpetual motion machine. That is not possible. ever.
To get to zero emissions the elite want to kill off at least seven billion humans.

Two years ago, there was a winter storm that stranded a lot of cars on I-95 in the DC area. First, it made me wonder if everyone was in an electric car if it would be a mass casualty event and how many people would have been killed. Then it made me wonder about how big the power grid would have to be if everyone drove an electric car. It turns out the national power grid would have to produce two to three times as much electricity.
Until we hear people talking about setting up power plants to do that, it’s all some sort of sick fantasy.
Or kill off half to three-quarters of the population, but just the gullible and self-centered ones…
Sure, there wouldn’t be a civilized society left to produce and repair EVs, but it solves the electricity production shortfall.
Can’t hurt to try though, current society is pretty much the denizens of a turkey farm arguing over who gets the best feed and gets to go into the chute first.
The autonomous excavator is quite doable these days, independent of power source. Currently there are some very good GPS guidance systems for pretty much every piece of construction equipment. The ones I’ve seen used let you upload the design data and then it won’t let you over excavate and the display will show you everywhere you need to. Having the computer do all the work isn’t much past that.
On the other hand, that’s not a good thing for Operators as that’s a good, well paying, job these days.
Have you ever watched the sadness that is Formula E racing? The announcers are doing their best to make a bunch of fast open wheel golf carts going around a track sound exiting. They don’t refuel, they just change cars.
That last one will take you all the way to the crash site.
The paranoia regarding fossil fuels has officially gone full retard
This electric shit has got to be stopped… with a noose.
Fuckin’ coal miners are going to be busy.
