Some very good news you probably won’t have heard about today, but could be the best thing the govt has done for EV drivers.
The Public Charge Point Regs 2023 may not sound exciting, but things are about to get a lot better for EV drivers! Thread 🧵
Imagine if there was a modestly funded and rigorously fact based lobby group in the UK which corrected the deluge of nonsense anti EV and renewables stories the old press churn out every minute.
Would you consider supporting such a venture?
AI needs regulatory brakes put on it, *immediately*.
It's not that AI is out to kill us, it's that we don't know how to control many of these models safely yet.

This is really important to understand. The best uses of renewable energy to reduce CO2 are, replace Coal Power stations, Run an EV to replace Diesel, and run a heat pump to replace a gas boiler. Making green hydrogen and green e-fuels are not even close!
What are best/worst ways to use renewable power?
CO2 rankings from @AgoraEW:
1⃣replace coal power
2⃣run EV to replace diesel
3⃣run heat pump to replace gas boiler
👎make H2 for H2 boiler
👎make H2 for H2 peaker
👎make e-fuels to replace diesel
