Given the current state of technology, yes. But we must, for example, not allow an environment that sabotages potentially disruptive innovation.
What if, for example, portable fusion reactors become financially viable? Or other energy storage technologies emerge which make current generation battery technologies obsolete. For example, gyroscopic energy storage has been explored. What does happen, however is that industry-sponsored regulations and subsidies stifle development of other avenues in favor of incumbent interests.
