Off topic, but does this count as a renewable energy resource in Libtard land? We already know it devastates the environment, is toxic, difficult to dispose of, etc.
Just why are we going electric again?

Because not only the powers that be in this country are pushing it but it's also being pushed on a more global stage. For example the former transportation secretary under Trump and Mitch McConnell's wife Elaine Chao is on the board of an EV charging station company. The current transportation secretary "Moderate" Pete Buttigieg is pushing it as well. As well as Biden and his plan for an electric kingdom in the U.S.

Companies like Castrol now have their own line of EV fluid products and Shell has designs for charging stations.

Because there are no green house gases coming out the tail pipe I believe. I think that’s about the total thought put into it regardless of how the electricity charging the batteries is generated. There are newer lithium derivatives like the lithium sulfate (?) compounds that have higher energy density but best I can tell all of the battery approaches getting money thrown at them still include elemental lithium in some form.

If the world was serious about clean energy there would be nuclear reactors everywhere.

One of those questions more up your alley than mine. The big drawback to real travel in an EV seems to be refills that are much slower than pumping gas in a tank. Plans are to charge batteries faster to be more competitive, but isn't rapid charging harmful to batteries? Faster charging means more heat to dissipate in the battery, but batteries need to be compact with less area for heat dissipation. Am I missing something or is this just another problem people are hiding to make EVs look like a better choice?

They have been investing HEAVILY into their arctic oil field production which is now in limbo since nobody will assist them. That’s it. Russia is not a player in lithium production. Between the two of us I’m the only one that actually provided a link from an actual world wide auto manufacturer stating their electric vehicle plans as well as the known supplies and reserves of lithium. Take a lap chump. 🤡

I never said they were going to be the top producer or exporter of lithium. I said they would be a major player in this market. They are expected to have a global market share of 10% by 2030. This is why I've said they will be just fine economically.

No you’re over the target. In order to do a rapid charge you have to manage heat in the cable as well as the battery pack and also manage excessive wear on battery from rapid charging. There’s a reason your phone does a peak charge cycle over night. It’s not my field of expertise but I don’t see a direct equivalent yet of pulling up to the pump and rapidly dumping a full tank of fuel in. Not yet anyway but I’d guess it’s a solvable problem.

And I’m telling your ignorant ass they won’t even be a major player because right now nobody will talk to them. Today it’s Chile and Australia and everyone is kissing their asses there is no need to deal with Russia and their baggage.

Isn’t your break from the grill over yet clown? Get back in the kitchen 🤡

I posted a link for you too. From a source more reputable than NPR, CNN, and Twitter trolls. Guess that doesn't fit your narrative.

Yep! August 2021.. before they became a pariah. Russia doesn’t have the expertise to deal with Siberia mines, they are HEAVILY invested in their arctic oil fields which are also in limbo, and they are way down the line on known reserves compared to the South American and Australian known reserves and those don’t come with war criminal baggage. I have plans to be a billionaire so I’m about in line with Russia’s “plans”. Pick up the spatula and get back to work clown 🤡

If you listen to any of the "high speed" DC chargers they all have a cooling loop around the cable when they are pushing a lot of amps. If they didn't, the limp wristed girlie men couldn't hang the 4/0 copper cable on the charging port.

You failed to address other points in that article I posted. Why don't you address the whole article instead of your own biases in this matter.

Once this manufactured conflict is over it will be back to business as usual for Russia.
If Russia does have a 10 percent global market share in lithium in the future that is a huge deal.

You are on repeat and you are embarrassing yourself at this point.

Yep. And it takes higher voltages to hit those energy transfer rates too which is another impact on the grid. It isn’t hard it’s just capacity that isn’t there today.

I have addressed what needed to be addressed. The Siberian ore is akin to the Canadian tar fields it isn’t as easily extractable as the brine reserves. Russia doesn’t have the expertise to do this alone and nobody will touch them with the South American and Australian resources available without the political baggage. Russia won’t be doing jack in regards to elemental lithium production anytime soon. Get back in the kitchen kid. 🤡

Yeah, but the give me everything for free generation hasn't figured that out yet. Electricity doesn't cause climate change, only oil, gas and coal, duh.

Went up to Tallulah Falls (sp?) few months ago and spent time visiting several small Georgia Power hydro plants. Area manager said the local young rivers goers yelled and cussed at him all the time. Hostile. Dumbasses dont even realize that hydro is is green as it gets, while all the time enjoying their river runs that would not even be possible without the plants. Mind numbing.

Once again. I said by 2030. I never said they would be a major player anytime soon. Is it really that hard for you to grasp? Personally I think it will be before 2030. More like 2027 or 2028.

And let's not forget they are still the largest wheat exporter in the world and doubt that will change anytime soon.

I get it now. The clown emoji acts as your signature. Makes perfect sense.
