Many thanks for this delightfully written article, pointing out essential aspects of the electification of cars. It reminded me of David McKay's book "Sustainable Energy - Without the hot air" in the way that the order of magnitude in the change of certain variables such as energy production or tax revenue is calculated.

You may find it interesting to look at a similar approach to road taxing in Edward Leigh's work, e.g. https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/new-petroldiesel-cars-vans-from-2030-edward-leigh/ .

My own thoughts, should yoy be interested: https://peter-wurmsdobler.medium.com/electrification-of-vehicles-carry-on-with-habits-and-business-as-usual-11b9633cc9a8
