Well that's going to be interesting. We're already reaching end of life for some of our older nuclear reactors, coal plants are closing as they are unable to comply with EU emissions regulations and we're basically propping the whole thing up with gas and coal. Every new infrastructure project in this space is a walking disaster of cost and chaos. And to add insult to injury we're doing a very stupid thing and bailing out of Europe which means it's going to cost more to import electricity.
So, what are we going to power our cars with? I'm betting I'm on a bicycle again in 2040. Perhaps "peak car ownership" is over.
And what are we going to do with all the petrol and diesel cars then? Bury them? Recycling them is more difficult than it looks.
