[QUOTE="Dave645, post: 7862926, member: 55822"] I good summing up, I would say that, the old system involved payments for power plants to sit on standby, with the advent of millions of EV vehicles and grid level storage that cost disappears and most production needed to keep the grid running will be running 24/7 as much as possible this makes them more economic and actually drops the price of electric. I would also note a lot more home users will install home batteries and home solar this also reduces the need to transmit power halfway across the country because as you say these systems are be setup to run at the 230v level when home generation is exported to the grid it’s often only traveling a short distance to find its new home. as for the battery tech that has already shifted massively over the last 5 years in the next 10 I would expect most will be 95% plus recyclable and have little to no rare Earth materials in them, even the current new generation batteries have reduced massively their rare Earth materials content, and sometimes they have removed them entirely. roll on 10 years batteries will not be the issue they are now. for street charging they are testing inductive chargers, that require no direct wire connections to the EV While not everything is ready for a mass rollout of EV cars etc, they will replace all car sales in the UK. I think the biggest barrier to the roll out of EV’s is the car makers, they have dragged their feet so long that the biggest problem is going to ramping up production and the fact most are making rubbish EV’s, then add all the supply chains needed to supply the batteries.
