You have to laugh at a propaganda department that believes its empty statement of "confidence" in the grid counters #EVmisconceptions that the grid is as we speak, losing stability and has required the de-mothballing of coal generating plant.

@OZEVgovuk In what way does your ridiculous "confidence" in a grid that only this week has had to bring online mothballed coal power stations counter #EVMisconceptions? You must think that we're as stupid as you are.

10-The electricity grid won’t be able to cope with EV uptake Reality-We are confident the grid can cope through grid upgrades. Smart charging reduces demand for new infrastructure and EVs could benefit the grid in time through technologies i.e. vehicle to grid #EVMisconceptions

8 - It takes too long to charge an electric vehicle Reality- Most charging will be done at or near home overnight However, new cars are typically capable of charging up 120 miles or more in as little as 20 minutes – the time it takes to enjoy a cup of coffee. #EVMisconceptions

4 - EVs are too expensive Reality- EVs do cost more to buy outright but they benefit from a huge advantage in running costs and much lower maintenance costs Some forecasts show by the mid-late 2020s, EVs could be the same price to purchase as a petrol/diesel car #EVMisconceptions

1 - EVs don’t have the battery range to travel as far as people need Reality - By car, 99% of journeys in England are under 100 miles, meaning most drivers’ needs are easily met by an electric car! Find out more by following the link in the first tweet #EVMisconceptions

While EV uptake has been increasing people still understandably have questions and so we have created a 'Common Misconceptions' leaflet to address this #EVMisconceptions #WorldEVDay https://t.co/cebk0kClai
