Weird, I work as a Design engineer in the energy supply sector, and own an EV. I've never seen any need for "Firehoses" let alone 20. I think you might be confusing them for something else.

Or i might be simplifying. Probably oversimplifying, but then i was responding to someone who seemed to need it. If ypu think there isnt a problem then it must be ok... ... and this link is needlessly alarmist or just wrong www.gov.uk/government/p...

Hence "The Lions share of the infrastructure is already there" Sure, the the grid would collapse if we all switched to EV overnight, but that would not happen. It's much easier for us to gradually improve the grid in Pace with accelerated EV take up than fix the damage caused by ICE transport.

Gradually improve it, then. Takeup will happen on its own if the product is superior. The government didnt have to threaten huge fines for phone manufacturers if they didnt stop making non-smart phones. Ditto HD/4k tvs. They had to threaten car co.s into compliance because the product is inferior
