Californias plan to ban the sale of gasoline powered vehicles starting in 2030 will fail. This is not an opinion. Using: ohms law, the formula for power and Teslas own published charging rates for the model three. Their smallest most efficient car. I calculated the power consumption then multiplied by Californians own published statistics of 1.8M vehicles sold per year as the normal replacement rate. Then I googled California’s total power generation capacity. Then I factored in the average miles driven per year driven by the average American. California would need to DOUBLE their power output in the first year just to keep up with the charging necessary to keep up with the replacement rate.
