Short-sighted. EV is the future. Back on TMF there was a "peak oil" board. Lots of discussion about the future of petroleum. Basically, we'll never really run out because it will become too expensive to use extensively. But, for all practical purposes, as that happens we will be "running out" because no one will pay that much for it. I won't predict a date, but it is going to go away in the not too distant future.

Hydrogen is largely derived from breaking fossil fuels (a.k.a. "hydro"-carbons). So, it's not really that clean, plus it will be affected by oil supplies.

The list is fairly short for viable options, and the best one is EV. It's almost a certainty that the battery storage issues will be resolved. Some companies already have working prototypes that address many issues.

So we'll need the EV infrastructure, just was we have needed the petro infrastructure over the past century. Musk was right about that when he started building-out Tesla's infrastructure.
