What's gonna happen when it's ALL electric cars someday?

Just days after passing a ban on all new gas vehicles starting in 2035, California has had to ask their Tesla and other electric vehicle owners to stop plugging their cars in because they can't spare the electricity.

Only from 4-9pm. Stupid idea to mandate EV's, but that's an important caveat.

I'm sure someone smarter than me can estimate the amount of gas pumped in California and convert that to equivalent in electricity. avg mpg equivalency and all that.

I'll bet it is eye popping how much more electricity will be needed.

EDIT ***** California was adding about 2.2 million new cars a year prior to 2021

No it's not
I agree, no mandate should have a caveat...
As the EVs increase the 4-9 will stretch to noon-midnight and finally you can only charge your EV from 1 am to 2 am.
Home generator sales will spike. That would be one way around the mandate.

So now I get home and park and have to wait around until 9pm to go plug it in. No thanks!

What would be the fuel for the home generators? Hydrocarbons I'd guess.

If hardly anyone charges in those hours why would they care ?

A voluntary energy conservation measure isn't a mandate

You plug it in when you get home and have the Tesla app schedule charging to begin at 2am.

Technology is hard for some people.

So now I get home at 5:30 and plug in, but get no power, then I have to go somewhere so I have to unplug and then plug back in when I get back. Sounds like a blast!

Just get the safe vaccine to protect yourself and your family to get the shot or your fired.

It's 4-9 now. Soon it could be alternating days.

Why wouldn't you get power?

Edit: oh are you saying plugging something in is too hard?

I am not a believer but I cringe at stories like that. We jump on it and laugh and stuff…..but did a state government agency or a utility power company make this critical announcement?.

Not CA, but I believe we will see more of this near term.

Most EV's only need to charge every few days. Keep trying.

If you charge at home for daily use this is a non issue.

It won't ever be all electric cars. At least not in our lifetime or our grandchildren's grandchildren's lifetime. Now 500 years from now? Who knows we might be talking Jetsons
