The physics of power generation. Have a battery car all you like. The electrons powering that car are coming from coal.

More gas than coal over here, but we’re close to 50% renewable energy and growing fast. I use an exclusively solar/wind provider, and with a set of solar panels I could easily generate enough power for 10.000km/year charging at home. You might need to revise some of your concepts.

Just to keep things real and your eye on the ball, there's a caveat (well, several) to the statistic you've quoted and linked.

That's "close to" 50% renewables in some regions toward replacing current electricity generation.

If all vehicles stopped using petrol | diesal tomorrow and automagically becam electric the demand for electricity would increase dramatically and renewable contributions as a percentage would dwindle.

It's good work so far but there's still a long way to go, much to do, and a few billion tonnes of mining to churn through just to provide resources for your goal.

Ricardobeat is sipping the kool aid. First, just because an energy source has a name plate capacity of x does not mean it generates x. Typically, wind and solar generate 10% of their nameplate value (while fossil fuels generate 100%)! Also, there has to be a baseline power source on the grid (which is fossils fuels, using gas from Russia in your part of the world)!

Also, I would check your stats. It's officially 70% fossil fuel usage in Green ol EU (https://ec.europa.eu/eurostat/web/products-eurostat-news/w/D...).

I'm sorry, but everyone is out of their mind on these issues. The only way to achieve CO2 reductions is by using nuclear power. That's the fact.
