It would be fun to see what others have done with solar and other renewables, if you wouldn't mind starting a thread.

DJLegba:
I'd like to recommend a book by Vaclav Smil, "How the World Really Works". He's not a "climate change denier" and he has no political ax to grind. He's an interdisciplinary scientist at the University and Manitoba and he understands that we need to clean things up, but he looks at the numbers as a scientist. It's a short book with no particular political slant.

I will leave everything I own so my son can buy an EV after I pass.

JimH:
arstechnica article on the Federal effort to improve the charging network.  $5 billion.

The design, fit and finish on the EQS looks amazing
