I'm familiar ad nauseum with all the well-worn anti-EV tropes.With my *very teeny megaphone, I've done my little bit to try and dispel

Having followed media stories about EVs for ~10 years, I’m familiar ad nauseum with all the well-worn anti-EV tropes.teeny megaphone, I’ve done my little bit to try and dispel them over the years. In 2015,, countering the misguided EV footprint analysis published by a leading environmental-health research team. Theirs was a classic case of “garbage in, garbage out” analysis. The transport mode they claimed was overall “healthier” than EVs was none other than “clean diesel.

All these points have been vindicated bigly. Now, when Americans can get an electric Ford F-150 for a competitive price, let alone smaller beasts — and when most of the world’s governments have put their foot down firmly in favor of EVs being the way to go vs. the climate crisis — those once-dominant anti-EV tropes are being relegated to the fringe.

Besides turkey-cooking, Thanksgiving also marks a time when Americans spend long days and nights together indoors. In much of the country, the weather is cold, so heating is required. According to the40% of US households use electricity for heating, a number that’s sure to rise. So, at the same time that they are baking their turkeys, millions of households also draw a substantial number of kilowatts to keep themselves comfortable.

Now, standard medium/high-end home EV chargers draw 6–7kW, substantially less than your cooking oven. Although there’s some trend to move towards ~10kW chargers, most households probably won’t need that rate. This is because most home EV charging can easily take place overnight, plenty enough time for 6–7kW to charge most EVs from nearly empty to nearly full.
