    The Problems With EVs - Harrys Garage

    .....and what about the electricity substations and transformers that need upgrading to support the increased load as well as the need to increase power generation - don't forget we will be losing gas/oil boilers and installing electric powered ASHPs.

    The Problems With EVs - Harrys Garage
