>Where is the data supporting youre 'no break even on coal' assertion. Already did that. *The point is the existing break even point…

>Again wheres your references?. Still waiting for your links to an assertion that EVs do not have lifetime emmisions lower than ICE.…

> Refining petroleum uses huge amounts of energy. You're assuming this and have not data to back it up. Petroleum is produced by refining…

My mistake on the maths. Point is the same. The efficiencies for coal EVs and ICE are around the same. Nit picking on distribution factors…

>Ok maybe were confusing energy efficiency with emissions here. Im certainly not confusing these terms. The terms are intimately linked in…

The general public have been indoctrinated for decades with the false premise that nuclear is bad. Its obviously false. France had hundreds…

After the initial outlay, the nuclear energy cost is considerably lower than renewables. This cap is there to stop energy producers gouging…

Thank you for the youtube link. It obviously clear cut isn't right? Wrong, and this is why. 1. The presenter states he teamed up with…

I thought so. You made a baseless statement, called the science card and can not produce a shred of supporting evidence.

>but fossil fuel powered EVs are still.more efficient and less polluting than ICE… because science. Can you explain the *science*. I…

>Where is your proof that it isnt? Its logically self evident. The vast majority of global power generation is sourced from carbon fuels.

>Thats just not true. Whats the reasoning behind that statement. Base the reply on a global scale. France for example, generates most of…

Real world data says otherwise. France has much cheaper electricity prices by going nuclear than Germany who have gone the renewable path…

>the more renewable energy we get into the grid, the shorter the break even point. Totally agree with that statement. At this point in time…

> Nah, when you say 40% you're comparing between the top of the range of a petrol engine and the top range for coal fired power plants…

There is a quite a distinct possibility, being a noob, there was something lost in the communication or a misunderstanding. Strictly…

>An EV uses more to make, but less to drive. An ICE is less to make, but more to drive. After the break even point the whole of life energy…

Do you know that coal fired plants have around 40% efficiency, similar to ICE? That means coal fired plants dump a massive amount of waste…

@rumblytangara @Euphemistic >and she said that this is an oft-mentioned but wildly misused argument. That even electricity from the dirty…

Yes its distance that counts, but not referencing the difference between European and Australian average driving distances, makes it…

Agreed, undeniably not the OP fault. The OP is a software engineer that happens to write code that takes time zones into account and as…

That is a valid point. Technically the OP fulfilled his obligation to qualify for the bonus interest by transferring the funds on the 1st…
