Like all Governments overseas, Liarbour have put the cart before the horse. Sales of EV’s will not reach the required levels until the charging infrastructure is in place. Look at the video to understand the problems and the answers.

What about used battery disposal?
So many unreported prblems…
O-sen@0700
You’re not supposed to have noticed, let alone even comment about such trivialities…
Notably St. Greta is conspicuous by her absence.
It’s amazing what people won’t talk about but are obvious if you think about it.
Lack of critical thinking and critical path analysis.
Typical of the left and arty farrty.
Engineers on the other hand know this stuff.
Yes, but just think of the feels she gets by making an anoucement, of the anoucement!
It’s like a cloud of smoke or a line on the vanity top!
There will be no problems with used battery disposal because by the time the average EV battery dies, civilisation itself will have died; destroyed by Marxist ecofascism. There will be no way of disposing of them. The batteries will just sit in their abandoned vehicles while the humans merrily get on with their lives riding to town on horses and ploughing their fields with oxen.
The government wipes all experience, all known facts, so then it considers it has an “unbiased” consideration to then make a supposed “well advised”, “well being”, “on the level” decision.
This is how so many decisions are made in the “neo-modern” way, a “Discourse Consensus” is then declared!
So it seems the virtue signalling governments are putting the cart before the horse.
The more a government interferes, it is for the feelz good factor of a valueless virtue signal, spun to get a vote. 🙁
The basis of infra structure is not addressed.
Sadly subsidies, regulations, etc. will attempt to cover this, like “kiwibuild”.
Then the 2nd part though this video does not touch on that is the readily availability of electricity or NOT.
Another part of infrastructure, that is too often again debased by “virtue signalling” by the “benevolent” wind & solar, as being “sustainable”, but operating cost never seems to be clear cut.
In solving those problems, will see what the price of electricity, and grid distribution, may change those balance points too,
Can the price of electricity reach to the same price equivalent of energy as petrol and diesel?
Is the government in its systems actually be putting a petrol generator in the boot of every electric car in how it wants to be managing the electricity sector, just as it mines Indonesian Coal for the Huntly Power station.
Sure it covers things with sleight of hand, movements of money, subsidies, levies & fees,
That is why with “Discourse Consensus” they will come to “Love Big Brother” the only great fount of knowledge …. yeah right …. that is allowed.
And make them pay for the electricity and infrastructure. Along with the usual taxes for ACC, roading etc. Plus a massive tax to deal with the environmental devastation caused by the battery manufacturing and disposal.
They claim to be environmentalists. Instead the clown car and their Green mates are too stupid to understand the damage they will cause. Join the dots dumb arses.
I have to put in a good word for EV’s. Our 2014 Nisan LEAF has 70,000 kms on the odometer and 83% of the original battery capacity.
We charge the LEAF either at night or during the day from our solar panels.
When the battery no longer enables us to drive the distance we want, we will get a new battery and put the old battery in our solar system.
How long did it take to roll out the oil and gas platforms around the world – 70+ years essentially, and still some places in the world you can’t buy petrol/gas.
EV is going to take an Eion of time to get the same delivery of service. Remember your EV chargeability is only as good as the countries ability to support the base load. Solar and Wind can’t do base load. Nuclear, coal and gas can. Wonder how that’s going to work or NOT!
