California within one week: bans gas cars, tells people not to charge electric cars due to power shortages

08.31.2022

Recently (with potential implications for New Mexico), California’s unelected clean air board decided to ban gas powered cars by 2035 with a rapid ramp-up over the next decade or so.

Interestingly enough, while New Mexico continues to follow California on electric vehicles and a push to “renewables” on the power grid, it seems likely to ALSO follow California to having inadequate electrical power in the near future (especially next summer when the San Juan Generating Station will no longer be available).
