Great points. If you are inclined add a friend link.

My view is the $10 trillion fossil fuel industry market will be largely replaced by renewable energy and EVs. Renewable energy and EV are constantly improving in price and performance. So the trend will continue and yes the fossil fuel industry lies to protect their declining market share.
Another point. Electric rates are lower in off peak. EVs can be programmed to use off peak rates. Do utilities or power companies care? Yes as the capital cost of installed equipment will be paid back quicker and no new equipment is needed for the extra power demand. Of course this changes as the mix of renewable source changes.
