In the Nullabor desert in Australia...

...where there is no electrical grid...

...and it was from more than 6 years ago...

...when it was being done as an experiment...

...and it was running on bio-diesel:

'Jon Edwards, a retired engineer who developed the roadhouse’s BiØfil EV
charger, told AAP FactCheck in an email that “the unit started, ran
perfectly on waste oil, fully charging my car” when he visited in
November 2022. Edwards confirmed that “for the majority of weather it
runs on the waste fryer oil.”'

Today:

'The stations feature a solar roof canopy, an integrated battery storage
system to store the excess solar, and a diesel backup generator.'
Post by AlleyCat
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GhUdNTLXsAAb_s3?format=jpg&name=small
That's at the El Paso airport and the generator is for emergencies...

...for the buildings, not the charge points:

'Contacted by AFP, a spokesperson for Blink, the company listed on the
EV charging station, said: "The charging station is not powered by the
diesel generator or connected to it.

"To our knowledge, the generator is for emergency lighting and other
amenities for the parking lot only and is designed for backup power for
the terminal. The generator is not in operation unless there is an
emergency, and the main power is off."'

Again, for emergencies, just like you can have a can of gas delivered to
you if you run out.

WHICH building are these generators powering?

Loading Image...

This is from September 30, 2023.

In 2017, Tesla CEO said that all Superchargers in the automaker's network were being converted to solar.

7 years later, and...?

Superchargers charge vehicles up to the 80% sweet spot in as little as 20 minutes, but to provide that kind of power for nearly 100 bays takes
something solar can't provide - diesel generators.

Investigative journalist Edward Niedermeyer discovered that the station was powered by diesel generators hidden behind a Shell station. Reporters at
SF Gate tried to find out how much of the station's electricity was from the generators, but couldn't get a response from Tesla.

The station isn't connected to any dedicated solar farms, which means that absent the diesel generators, the station is powered by California's grid.

According to the U.S. Energy and Information Administration, in June 2023, natural gas supplied nearly 5,000 megawatt hours of electricity in
California, whereas non-hydroelectric renewables supplied about 7,250 megawatt hours.

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/aocs-top-aide-admits-green-new-deal-

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's chief of staff recently admitted that the Green New Deal was not conceived as an effort to deal with climate change,
but instead a "how-do-you-change-the-entire economy thing" -- a remark likely to fuel Republican claims that the deal is nothing more than a thinly
veiled socialist takeover of the U.S. economy. "The interesting thing about the Green New Deal is it wasn't originally a climate thing at all,"
Saikat Chakrabarti said in May, according to The Washington Post.

Bio-diesel is still a looong ways offa bein' "energy efficient".
Currently it's co$t is sufficient that it is economically warranted
only in underground mines and other places where operators cannot
avoid direct exhaust. Turning corn that people or cows can eat
into coal to burn buys us nothing.

Synthesising long-chain hydro-carbon directly from solar seems to me to be
the grail: leaving the plant step in involves the temptation to futz with
the underlying mechanisms of plant metabolism, something I think best
to avoid on-planet. Long-chain alcohols might be a good first step.

As for st8 battery-electrics, they make sense inside big cities, but
batteries are a 4 century-old (or more) tech that's the achilles's heal
of our technology...

That's the point!

EVs save oil, not energy and not the environment.

Biofuels save oil, not energy and not the environment.

Bitumen saves oil, certainly no energy or the environment. In
fact it uses tons more energy...

There's no magic here. Nothing, and I do mean absolutely NOTHING
in all the Gwobull Warbling "Solutions" maps to a cleaner
environment. It all maps to saving oil. All of it.

Turn back the clock to even the 1990s and there was not a single
economist who wouldn't tell you that the economy rides on oil.

Germany not only lost WWII because of oil but largely fought it
for oil! One reason why they did so well is because the British
and the French just kind of expected them to run out. All they
had to do was keep them mobilized and they'd burn through what
they had.

Google it: Back when the U.K. was losing on all fronts and
Stalin wasn't doing so great either, they both stopped what
they were doing and invaded Iran, the British empire's chief
source of oil.

In the 1970s, the "Oil" embargo sent the entire west into a
bad recession.

Gasoline was rationed in much of the country. People were
only allowed so many gallons (I think it was 10 here) and often
had to wait in long lines to get it.

When the Shah of Iran lost power and Iran withdrew into itself
the planet suddenly lost about 2 million barrels per day, and
the U.S. suffered from Stagflation and double-digit mortgage rates.

Oil.

We imposed a new national 55 MPH speed limit just to save fuel.

It's never not been about oil.

Yet, we never banned private jets, much less private aviation.

You can buy backyard heaters and even outdoor air conditioners.

ALL OF THE SAVINGS, 100% of the conservation is being ripped
from "The Bottom" 80 to 99% of the people... the smaller your
"Carbon Footprint," the harder you're hit by the insanely
regressive "Carbon" taxes, trading, credits & auctions.

The poorer you are the larger the percentage of your income
goes to these "Carbon" schemes, so the less you can afford. The
higher your income the easier it is for you to just pay the
tax schemes and pretend your EV is saving the polar bears.

EVs save oil, not energy and not the environment.
They make sense in dense urban environments.
Kinda like burnin' corn-oil in a uranium mine
'cause it tastes better'n diesel.
