[QUOTE="Bruce_ma gooshvili, post: 1072780, member: 74121"] Thats why I mentioned China. Besides it seems Norway is far ahead of even Sweden in terms of heat pump usage, so that electricity consumption sleep reference will be largely from a combination of heating buildings and charging cars.

Other countries are showing it is eminently possible to generate enough electricity for EVs and heat-pumps via renewable and nuclear energy. Countries whose governments are slaves to fossil fuel lobbyists will be at the back of the queue, but they will get there because economics are starting to dictate renewable energy is the most cost effective option. Once humungous battery farm tech becomes more cost effective we'll be able to manage fluctuations in renewable energy generation and have resilience on the grid.
