Interesting figures re cost of ev v ice cars...

Everyone moving to electric as the price of petrol and diesel kept hiking up and now the same is happening with the price of electricity. Ironic.
still way cheaper than ice fuels. costs me under 20 notes to fully charge my battery which gives me over 300mi, while ice tank cost 100 quid now. ok it will go further but not that much or anywhere near it.Quote:

Yes still cheaper no doubt about that, but the gap has diminished.
I suppose the real key to it is to make your own leccy. Was looking at those windmill things but they have to be sited twenty foot from your property boundary so it's a rich man's game, not for us terraced house people. Shame as it's always windy here and just one of them would cover all my power needs.
solar isnt cheap to set up but if youve a roof it at least is out of way. a good few folk here have them and a number of guys on motabilty forum have too. getting free power now including the car. buggers lolQuote:

Now if instead of a solar panel you could get a 'heavily overcast and raining' panel I'd be sorted.
Scotland produces renewable electricity equivalent to, almost its annual consumption, but some of this is exported, meaning it uses significant amounts of non-renewable electricity as well. In 2020, 56% of the electricity consumed in Scotland came from renewable sources. I presume what we export is a good earner.
they do work in all weathers; obviously best in full sun but they still produce leccy.Quote:

you'd think given the price of it now.
