California has over a millions EVs on the road. More than 7x the next largest state.
The grid seems to be fine under most circumstances. Most EVs charge at home, overnight, where electrical usage is very low.

I believe your link is leaving out plugin hybrids.
Sure, what is your point? Iāll never want California to get ALL of its electricity from in state. It make us less resilient if a natural disaster hits.
Sold is different then on the road. But keep digging. I posted the registered numbers.
Unless you think there is 400k unregistered EV in CA
I edited my reply. I believe your link was leaving out plug in hybrids.
How much electricity is being saved used using LEDās vs incandescent light bulbsā¦in millions of homes?
Your article doesnāt include Hybrids either. They are not Zero emission- ZEV. Your state is patting themselves on back with deception. You really should not put blind faith in anything Newsom has to say.

Well that explains why Libs donāt want America to produce all its own energy needs and sell the surplus; if we ever go into another war and run short of oil, we can just buy it from whoever weāre at war with!
Building out a renewable energy infrastructure will lead to less reliance on foreign sources of energyā¦ not more.

Have you looked up what is considered a ZEV? It includes plug in hybrids.
You should really slow down a bit before lobbing insults
Because someone told himā¦and bias conformation.
Are not EVāS

Correct I got that wrong.
But he didnāt say ādonāt do XYZā.
Thatās the point.
The national grid system has been needing substantial upgrades for decades now. Even without EVs in the picture. Just about every stateās electrical infrastructure is substandard when it comes to both resilience and reliability.
Especially my own state. Our power grid sucks. But then again my capital city is literally in third world conditions right now thanks to the city government ignoring the outdated water filtration plants with only 70% of the workforce needed to even run the two big plants. So thatās the priority.
Who am I kidding. Theyāll just slap bandaids on the situation and we will be right back in this situation ten years from now.

You were wrong. So if proving you wrong is an insult that is your problem. You stated EVs not ZEV.
They are.
