Energy grid wouldn't survive quick mass EV adoption most likely. Heck, how would you even charge a car if you don't own a house - ideally parking places would have a slow charger where you could recharge car during night for cheap.
EV adoption can't happen in a second. If more EVs are sold, countries can just expand grids and charging networks with it.
Expanding energy grid is a slow process. Like really slow.
Is it? Seems data centers are able to do it quite quickly, and all at the cost of local taxpayers.
