Biogas is outdated tech - that’s why there’s no new biogas vehicles on the market. But EVs are brilliant for crisis preparedness! They can power homes for days if not weeks!

Yes, this is a good point! OTOH, not sure how great they are in an evacuation-due-to-invasion situation, and that is probably the main crisis people are thinking about in this neck of the woods.

If you’ve got home charging and solar panels, then your car would be charged up virtually all the time.

Though admittedly you are having to think about crisis situations that most of us in Europe never have to consider!

I love the idea of charging and feeding it back to the house when we need it. We have panels and excellent power for about 4 months of the year. Nordic winter, so solar is quite seasonal. We are interested in wind power one day- the horizontal turbine thing for the roof? But not so feasible, yet.
