This is incorrect. The grid has power. Stop spreading misinformation

Dates might be wrong but they are limiting gradually the sale of gas cars .

And they will have to triple the energy

Lol, yes, in the near future, all cars in the US will be electric except for some conservative hold outs. The electric cars themselves will balance the grid https://www.wired.com/story/electric-vehicles-could-rescue-the-us-power-grid/

I listened to a podcast but can't remember. They have under 15% now and were asked to not charge during last summer. 6x that amount needs more energy.

The chargers in cities need power . On the road too. It's a huge task that I don't think they will achieve more than 40%
