Thanks for interesting piece. One point I like to consider - if all the population of my city (let's say 1 million) were to drive EVs - but the source of electricity was entirely from a coal plant, WE'D STILL BE AHEAD OF THE GAME BECAUSE THE CITY WOULD JUST NEED TO CHANGE ONE THING - the source.

Changing one million people and their mode of transporation is a lot harder than changing a city's electricity source.

Good point Bill. And the added demand would push for more generation capacity, which would inevitably come from solar and wind because they are so much less expensive than coal or gas.
