Ben is a fan of electric vehicle, but not fanatic, an electrical engineer but not an EV engineer, a Tesla owner (X then 3) but not fossil.
Electricity is everywhere we go, gasoline is only where we take it.

Choose your charging energy source consciously.
Be aware your mass is 100kg, and an EV is over 1000kg.
- This is fundamentally inefficient.
Keep an eye on Hydrogen as an option, especially for fleet vehicles.
Be sure your solar installation can work when the grid is down.
- That is get a battery, and perhaps some DC coupled panels.
- Look into “vehicle to grid” capable cars.
Be realistic about the benefits of EVs, see through marketing
Displacing other forms of travel.
- Think driving instead of flying.
How to be self-sovereign in transport.
- AC vs DC coupling.
- Going off in a power cut vs not.
Grid impact?
- Texas has its own grid, cannot accept power from other states.
Recycling of batteries.
- Tesla currently constrained by the lack of old batteries.
- They won’t go into landfill because they are so valuable.
