Separate names with a comma.
And which turned out to be wrong.
Yes - more than all of it. You're right - they've lost money on every car they've ever made, despite them all being over-priced.
Another problem with EVs is out-of-town charging cost. Electrify America charges $0.31/kWh. With gas at $2.80/gallon my Prime is around...
Well, the Leaf has Chademo, so that's the limit there, but the Bolt has CCS which supports up to 350kW but the car limits it to something like 55kW.
My son wants an EV. Because of Elon's behavior during the pandemic, he and his friends have entirely written off Tesla for life - they'd all...
250kW *minus*. If Teslas could charge at 250kW, from 0% to, say, 90%, that would be somewhat okay. But they only charge at 250kW when the...
The charge takes too long. I spent 40 minutes in my car charging on Monday. It was intolerable except that I had a work meeting which I took on my...
And lower cost, longer range, lighter weight cars.
Yes - and that role, like in your Prius, doesn't allow the fuel cell (engine in your Prius) to be down-sized from peak power (for hill climbing,...
Yes! And that's a good thing! Infrastructure is expensive. The idea is to put in infrastructure like Supercharger stations, just using much...
Barely. This is tens of seconds worth of storage, not tens of minutes like I recommend - with all power coming from the battery. Ultimately,...
No. Having two sources of *energy*, each 1/10th as big as having only one or the other, and one source of propulsion (electric motor), decreases...
But energy isn't the same - people won't pay 2.5x more for the same thing, they'll pay 2.5x more if it's worth more. Shutting down your...
No. Curtailment of renewables just directly increases the cost - 2.5x curtailment = 2.5x higher cost of energy. This is not the case with our...
That approach, called curtailment, is not economical used alone. It's part of the optimal solution, but not a huge part.
The tanks are not that big, and it doesn't really matter anyway because they are stationary. Ours was a small tube trailer (20 feet long and 6...
Yeah, that'll go over well on airplanes. The point you don't understand is that our energy systems (electricity, heat and transportation) are...
Not any time soon - just like the Supercharger stations. In all those 50 days of traveling, passing by multiple supercharger stations, I saw a...
One. That's kind of the whole point of the concept. You only use this hydrogen for road trips. The rest is done on plug-in energy when near...
Well, you should worry about it. Without seasonal storage solved, we can't keep the lights on, heat our houses, run our businesses, run our...
