I hate to keep belaboring the unrealistic belief in electric cars, but some reason needs to be in the conversation. I have read a couple of articles that says for California to be able to provide enough electricity for projected population growth and the growth of electric cars mandated for 2035, the state will have to build 20 full size generating plants. Right now, the state is operating at the maximum output of electricity available. There is no way that will happen by 2035. By the time all the environmental requirements have been met, the claims by the NIBY groups who claim some endangered species is threatened have been disproved and the necessary funding has been obtained, 2035 is a pipe dream.
