> > Solar on every structure, every vehicle is an EV > Have you done any calculations as to whether this would actually work? Yes. All cars and vans in the UK drive a total of 320 billion miles a year. My own electric car tells me this would require 80 billion kWh. 1kWp produces 1000 kWh a year, so you need 80 million kWp or 80 TWh a year. My house will easily provide 8kWp, meaning you'd need 10 million houses. There's 30 million homes, and that's before you factor in non-domestic buildings. A single shooting estate in the uk could produce 20TWh a year with solar alone. Throw in wind and that would petty much double. | ||
