I can add an absurdity. Canada has Federally mandated that 20% of all passenger cars, SUVs, and trucks sold in the country in 2026 be electric vehicles (EVs)
And think of that untested supply chain. Has it been planned from start to finish with all of the contingencies taken into account? Have they looked at the Laws of Unintended Consequences of 20% of all new passenger vehicles suddenly relying on an already uncertain grid? Does GM have to submit a complete Scope 1, 2, and 3 modelling exercise?
Jutland in Denmark is covered with fields of beautiful corn. Not an ear of it will be eaten. It is mowed and ground to silage. Interestingly, I eas told that it was not to feed Denmark's hordes of hogs, but for export to Germany for conversion to biofuel!
It's been a while since I checked Denmark's figures, but that 50% renewables figure was, circa 2016-17 or so, false. Instead, this figure was obtained by cutting down domestic production of electricity, and ignoring the source of roughly 50%+ of electricity that was imported.
