    Fossil fuel power plants don’t count. EVs running of fossil fuel make no sense. Remove them from the equation and my prediction becomes extremely optimistic.

      In what world don’t they count?

      They can power EVs. And running an EV on fossil fuel electricity is still far less polluting than running a petrol or diesel car.

      Where are your sources for what you’re saying?

      EVs are currently running partially on fossil fuel just fine and generating less pollution than ICEs because power plant efficiency is still better than combustion engine efficiency.
