This would never fly in most countries. The only way I could see it happening is if they tax the hell out of fuel so much that it becomes too expensive to run/gas stations go under. It would be a huge hit to the economy...

I can live with having an electric car quite happily as long as it can match the convenience of my petrol car. I need range and the ability to fill up easily. Besides that electric cars are fine. Although I’d like to have a second petrol powered weekend car still.

This is already kind of in progress in Europe. Fuel prices are pretty high.

So when should I start stocking up on fuel? How do I avoid the fuel going bad?

I’m predicting double the number of scooters and bikes in France by that time. The new scooters will be electric.

Bio diesel or ethanol , home brewed. If you live in the southern US states there are guys trying to commercialize the same, making it from kudzu.

I live in the east... of France, but such things will eventually turn up if they shut down petrol stations

LOL with fewer nuke plants, fewer coal or gas fired plants, something is missing from this equation.

LOL France, this guy must be their DeVos, another lucky generation zero credential whiny hack.

Gasoline and diesel are taxed twice in Germany....

Diesel a bit less so that’s why it is/was very popular.

Article said at least 4 billion in investments in renewable energy.

And zero details as to what specific “renewable energy” is being planned, no details as to what will power all of these vehicles.

Pie in the sky nonsense from a millionaire public servant with no real world cred.
