And the answer to prop up the power grid to charge these batteries when the sun isn't shining? More Li-ion batteries, by the metric shit-ton load. For every 100KW EV battery you put in a car, you'll need to add 2x's as much battery capacity into the "green grid" because they can't be fully charged or fully discharged if you want them to last. It's a non-linear demand cycle. So it's more like 30x^2.
