You Must Switch to an Electric Car, But You Can’t Drive It
Posted on January 16, 2023 by Baron Bodissey
Forcing everyone to replace their internal combustion vehicles with electric ones will, as has often been pointed out, overload the electrical grid and cause system outages. The solution, of course, is to limit the charging of vehicles and the distance they can be driven.
This is not a bug in the system; it’s a feature. The technocrats promoting the Great Reset know that the current level of vehicular usage cannot be maintained when everyone gets an electric car. And that’s fine: they’ve always wanted you to drive less. Or, preferably, not at all — take public transport instead, so you can experience the full diversity of cultural enrichment.
“Going electric” really means “No more driving”.

Concern about network overload: Network agency fears e-cars
Klaus Müller, President of the Federal Network Agency, at a press conference in August. The head of the Federal Network Agency sees the power grid in danger from electric cars. In an emergency, they should only be able to charge for a range of 50 kilometers. Heat pumps also threaten to become an overload factor. [So typical, at first force it down peoples throat with the “guilty conscience cudgel”, then force ‘em not to use it, or even make it illegal.]
The President of the Federal Network Agency, Klaus Müller, has warned of an overload of the electricity grid in Germany due to the increasing number of private electric car charging stations and electricity-driven heat pumps. “If a large number of new heat pumps and charging stations continue to be installed, then overload problems and local power failures in the distribution network are to be feared if we don’t act,” said Müller to the Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung. However, the heaters and chargers should not be completely disconnected from the power supply in critical phases, said Müller to the Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung. “We want to guarantee a minimum supply at all times.” Even with electricity rationing, private charging stations would be able to obtain enough electricity to charge the battery of an electric car within three hours for a range of 50 kilometers.
The Federal Network Agency considers the local low-voltage networks to be particularly prone to failure. The agency has therefore published a key issues paper that provides for electricity rationing for heat pumps and electric car charging stations in times of high network utilization. Grid operators should then throttle the power supply to the systems. The electricity rationing plans are scheduled to come into effect on January 1, 2024.
Afterword from the translator:
Funny, I thought the slogan of Robert Habeck and Ricarda Lang was: “We don’t have an electricity problem; we have a heating problem.” I guess ideological retardation doesn’t necessarily provide much of real education in common sense.
And then: Why 50 km? Why not 20, 10 or 5 km? At 50 km you can probably drive 30 km and then you still have 20 km in reserve to the charging station… if you’re lucky and it’s during summer. Otherwise, good luck travelling in those death-traps during a freezing cold winter’s night.
