Thoughts About Electric Cars and Infrastructure

I started to think about all the cars around me and how much electricity would be needed to replace all the cars around me. The 30 or so nearby cars likely need 600kw, or more. All the cars on the road in the bay area would consume around 16 gigawatts of power. This is an incredible amount of power, which would be over 45 million solar panels.

We have a lot of infrastructure to build to meet our daily driving needs.
