"Currently, the energy for our road transport networks comes from fossil fuels—mainly oil. The idea behind
transitioning to an electric transport future revolves around replacing this oil with electricity, which in turn it
is hoped might be created from non fossil fuel sources.
However when we dig beyond the “green gobbledegook” and actually get our calculator out, we soon discover that this idea simply can never work
in any capacity - either now or in the future. A universally adopted “electric car” will quickly result in
astronomical energy costs and spell the death of our already stressed national electricity grid.
"NSW’s fleet of “8000 new buses” will effectively require the power output of yet another Mount Piper
generator to charge each night."
