Electric vehicle FUD (and plain ignorance) is alive and well in Queensland

Electric vehicle FUD (and plain ignorance) is alive and well in Queensland

A brand new petition has been lodged with the Queensland Parliament, which seeks to ban electrical autos within the Sunshine State. It has already been signed by greater than 600 individuals, however it’s affected by myths, falsehoods and misunderstanding.

Let’s take a look on the petition first, which is addressed to the “Honourable the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Meeting of Queensland.”

Queensland residents attracts to the eye of the Home the development of the batteries for electrical autos in addition to the last word disposal of them when they’re previous their helpful life, is a really vital drain on pure assets. The development of the batteries makes use of vital heavy metals and acids, and drains pure assets that ought to be used elsewhere. The disposal of those batteries will contaminate the earth for a few years after they stop to be useable. ln addition, research have confirmed that almost all electrical autos are charged at house in a single day from electrical energy generated by coal. This simply strikes an oil downside to a coal downside with no acquire to the surroundings.

Your petitioners, due to this fact, request the Home to right away legislate to take away electrical autos from Queensland roads till producers can display useful resource impartial building and disposal of the batteries. ln addition, the autos ought to be self-generating for his or her energy and never drain exterior electrical energy provides.

I’m certain most of this web site’s readers may rebut these factors above, however here’s a temporary abstract of the problems and the solutions.

With respect – there are numerous recycling tasks up and working for EV batteries. It is a real situation, and I share the priority of the petitioner, however the issue has been solved. Right here is an example from the US. Most EV producers are severe about battery recycling and are constructing it into their enterprise plans (eg Volkswagen).

I’m not conscious of any research that say that almost all EVs are charged at house from coal. The Queensland grid is quickly transitioning to renewables and individuals are in a position to cost their vehicles from sunshine in the course of the day. At night time now we have pumped hydro and a bit of wind obtainable. Massive batteries are on their approach.

I’m not certain how the petitioner expects EVs to be self-generating. Even Toyota was pressured to confess that their self-generating hybrids had been truly powered by petrol.

As an increasing number of Battery Electrical Automobiles arrive on Queensland roads, mild will expel the darkness and data will improve. I want the petitioner properly and hope that he can accommodate the modifications which are to return.
