This is what we always knew. Evs require power. Blue cities hate consistent power. People can’t afford to move, politicians profit. Anyone that watched the California political class profit off oil while rolling blackout happened can tell you

EVs need power just sitting there doing nothing to keep the battery warm in winter and cold in summer.

They had to dig their car out and go to a charger just to keep the battery from draining completely and freezing, only to find the chargers broken.

Why somebody without a garage gets an EV is beyond me, really poor decision.

Even with a garage, you'd probably still want to charge them outside.

Because some EVs in garages are literally deadly: https://futurism.com/the-byte/electric-cars-lighting-houses-on-fire

An EV without a heated garage is like buying a horse without food.

California's brown out period, along with Enron's participation, and the fact that they were using the regular brownouts to make commodity trades on the market for profiteering is a crime against humanity.
