How is that electric car working out for you in freezing cold weather?

As long as you can plug it into the legacy fossil fuel burning grid then I assume that it would be doing fine.

If, however, your house is "off the grid" and all solar/wind/renewable then you're shit out of luck.

Oil and coal are renewable energy now. It can be made in labs. It's just not cheaper than pulling it out of the ground.
