I'm all for electric power, but there is one issue that is always avoided.
Cars, yes, motorcycle, probably, but what about large commercial vehicles.
Artic lorries, buses, and so on.
It's one thing powering a relatively lightweight car, but how about a fully loaded 40 tonne lorry.
Presumably, Norway plans to ban these vehicles too, which means bye bye public transport and international deliveries.
This is BS.
We are nowhere near 10 years off the technological progress required to power all vehicles from the plug.
