I'm waiting to hear the next step in your logic. Where is this "new" electricity going to come from?
In regard to your comment . . . "change the vehicle's energy source, then change the way you get that energy. Same process as gasoline fueled vehicles followed 100 years ago..."
No, not true at all. 100 years ago we had a glut of petroleum and were trying to find expanded ways to use it. Gasoline at one time was an unwanted by-product of petro refining.
