Sure but how we power our grid isn't the only question.
I also wonder what effect battery life and potentially needing to scrap cars sooner than ICE versions will have on overall energy consumption.

Isn't there also the question of battery manufacturing as well?
Supplying all the stuff that goes into them isn't great for the environment.

My point was just that powering the grid is not the only consideration.
Battery tech is still messy and limited IMO, we still need a step change in the capabilities which may or may not come.
