Whats your stance on electric cars /pol/? Government wants to increase electric cars share. Are they a meme or do you think they'll gain significant market share in coming years? And how will this affect oil economy
>>
useless for going out of town unless they suddenly start propping up recharging stations

We need battery technology for that. Current li-po batteries used in electric vehicles have shit energy density and are heavy.

I gladly welcome electric vehicles. Electric motors have superior power output and especially torque output to ices.

Plus it slays the oil industry jew, so it's 100% okay in my book

Thats main reason why I want them to get mainstream. It will be pretty interesting how much it will affect oil industry. Tesla has made lot of progress in the battery tech I think? I hope it improves soon

Depends on the cost of gas vs reliability,upkeep cost and accessibility to electric stations.

For example.You buy one of these vs a used car that runs on gas.The used car (older) can most likely be fixed by any competent mech for a decent price or maybe cheaper.One of the new electric cars I would imagine you take to a dealer. Which most diagnostics,at least in my exp,run about 100 bucks right off the bat.

>Tesla has made lot of progress in the battery tech I think?
Tesla relies on government gibs. Everyone else waits for them to use public money to "figure shit out" so the rest can copy and make big buck from it. With this attitude it will take a while.

Electric cars are unfortunately in this mad circle where noone buys them because there aren't many convenient recharging stations and noone builds convenient recharging stations because noone buys electric cars.
Investing in public transport is considerably safer when it comes to financing it.

Electric cars have a place in market. The bad part is more electric cars = cheaper gas, which = fewer electric car sales.
>>
>>127690739
All it will take is a government policy change. They can tax petrol cars heavily making them much expensier and cut tax on electric cars. It won't take long before you have the infrastructure needed for recharging. Main reason I think its not happening as of now is because US government probably doesn't see it as beneficial. They have significant oil reserves and the oil economy makes their military industrial complex much worthwhile, and also giving them "edge" or upper hand while dealing with oil rich countries.

Tesla is a fucking bubble. Get out of it!
Tesla stocks is worth more than GM Motors today, but they only sold 76.000 cars in 2016. On the other hand GM Motors sold 10 million cars last year.
Tesla is a bubble waiting to burst.

>>127690428
Tesla buys their batteries from LG, Sony, and IIRC Tenergy. The "tesla battery tech" thing is mostly a meme although they are trying hard to build their own cell production facilities. It's still just 20+ year old tech though.

>>127689946
Electric cars are the only way to move a country off being reliant on coal generated electricity because during times of low power generation your car can sell electricity from its batteries back to the grid.


with enough electric car density we could have a grid that could run the night on electric cars alone.

Its not about environment its about getting off the oil. Coal will and is being replace with renevable energies. but that shouldn't mean electric cars shouldn't be build.

Electric/gasoline cars using the same tech as the Mclarin P1 are the future. Electric motors and batteries assisting a gas engine to make it more efficient and powerful are appealing and a delightful evolution. The straight electric car has a very long way to go to become consumer friendly.

Resource hungry prestige project for wealthy cityfaga. You still need to waste energy on the production, energy to move a heavy vehicle around. You need rare earth metals for the battery, and for the production of battery if you're using solar.

yeah they're not ready to replace cars. Li-Ion is awesome for cell phones, torches and it may also find its way into forklifts. And that's about it at the moment.

Maybe the fuel cell will be used to supply electrical vehicles - the plus is you can store a chemical in a tank rather than needing more microtexture and batterymass for every unit of charge. Of course they also have their problems.
>>
>>127695947
If you take care of your internal-combustion engine like you should, with all the oil changes, transmission fluid changes, brake jobs, timing set, etc., you will be paying just as much if not more. It's a very popular conservative argumentation tactic to pretend that the status quo is free, but it's not.
Electric motors last nearly forever. Electric car batteries also use only the middle third of their charge range to minimize battery stress. I think hybrids are a better idea, or throw a Honda generator in the truck bed and rock on.
>>127696347

Hmm...
>>
>>127696347
There are other possibilities, for example graphene batteries, or straight out designing a car where you can replace batteries in 10-15 min.

You would just drive to a charing station, and instead of charging your car you would replace empty batteries with full ones. This however would require infrastructure that makes current gasoline station chains look like childsplay
>>
>>127696593
Thats not true and you know it.I didnt payed 1/6 of the cost of my car so far and its 14 years old this year.Its not about the motors - that dont last forever,you know - its about the battery costing more than the whole car, and you HAVE to change them every 3 year or so if you want more than 30% of the original range.
>>
>>127696738
the physical changing of the battery is a workaround, doesn't mean it couldn't go mainstream, but it's not the ideal solution

and yeah if there are better solutions it's always good. The industry is pretty much waiting it out for the time being. They've developed the fuel cell sufficiently to make it possible to revert back to it if you quickly need to and that's about it.

I know it's a workaround, but that's the thing. It's a working solution for NOW, even if expensive to introduce.

>>127696986
No idea man. At this point is probably only a cost thing. Hydrogen cells are fucking expensive to produce.
Toyota Mirai sells in nippon just under 70k american, and experts calculated that Toyota loses almost 100k on every car sold.

But if a company can make electric battery cars cheaper and more efficient, they can make hydrogen cells more efficient and cheaper too.

It's probably a fashion thing. Electric cars have Tesla, and Tesla is a new apple for rich normies.


If anything, F1, and introduction of its technology into current gen hypercars showed that even using hybrid technology can make cars fater, better and more exciting. And fucking prius is still being produced. We live in the age of marvelous speed of technological progress, it probably just a question which direction to take.

Like VHS and Betamax, VHS won because it was more popular, even through it was inferior, it was "good enough" until the next big thing arrived. Or the whole BR vs HDDVD war, that was won beacuse of PS3.

I feel like hydrogen cars, with the proper infrastructure, could have all of the benefits of electricity, without the downsides.

>Hydrogen can be produced with water and electricity. A green electricity source means green hydrogen production.
>Cars still use electric motors, which means no transmissions and easy AWD.
>Refuel time is 5 minutes, rather than the minimum 1 hour charge time that Tesla has managed to reach.
>Hydrogen can be produced at a hobbyist level similar to using consumer solar panels to charge an electric car.

The only real problem is that there needs to be refueling stations built for hydrogen, with storage tanks and the like, while electric power is already in place (for the most part). On the other hand, I'm curious if gas stations could just produce their own hydrogen, given utility electrical and water connections, and if it could be economical for such a system to exist.

So, if we imagine simple european country, which changed all it's ordinary cars to electrical analogues there will be huge electricity consumption, which green power sources couldn't handle, and government will need to make more power from common power sources as coal, oil.

Hydrogen is the smallest atom. It fucks right through atomic bonds, even 4 inch thick steel cylinders. That creates huge losses and destroys the benefits and makes the whole thing exceptionally flammable.

Oh,

HIC units have their problems too bro.
They do not produce CO2, and mostly produce chemically clean H2O, they also produce NOx

Storing hydrogen is also a problem. Natural gas canisters already need to be super thicccc and crash resistant because of preassure and danger all those are increased tenfold with liquid hydrogen.

BULLSHIT.

Their was some powerplant some where that made the energy that your car runs on. Be it coal, gas, nuclear, etc.

If they wanted to use actual science and say a conventional car gets 25 miles to a gallon but an electric car can get charged and run for 200 miles requiring no gas that would get attention but it would not be the attention of the liberals who want to be religious zealots and smugly superior about what car they own.

Wikipedia doesn't seem to list leakage as an issue in their hydrogen storage page. If you have a source, I'd legitimately like to learn about this issue. Is it specifically liquid hydrogen that leaks, or gas as well?

Not sure, but if i know my phases of matter, the gas wants to escape a lot more than the liquid, so it might be less. But holy shit is it hard to make and store liquid hydrogen.

While that is all correct, the prevailing issue is that you end up using more energy to make and store the hydrogen than you get out of it, and it's still a fireball waiting to happen.

Liquid hydrogen does weird, almost eldritch things. Even if compressed hydrogen doesn't have storage issues, I could see liquid hydrogen seeping out freely, which is why I specified.

>While that is all correct, the prevailing issue is that you end up using more energy to make and store the hydrogen than you get out of it
In all fairness, any time energy is transferred this happens. Even using utility electricity to charge a car battery. With hydrogen, the extra energy lost in the transfer pays for a more energy-dense tank and a quicker refill.

The electric car meme is not about ecology. As with many things the government strives for, it's about control.
The combustion engine car being readily available to most everyone in the first world, and its construction being simple enough that you could learn how to keep it going just from tinkering at it a few nights a week is a nightmare for the powers that be, but like the internet, they never really knew how big it would get and let it happen. Anywhere there is a road is a place you could go, and plenty of places without roads, too. At high speeds and by any route of your choosing, just as long as you don't run out of gas.
Keeping tabs on you is hell on earth and costs way more than they'd like. So what then? They make these electrical shitboxes, with limited power supplies and extremely localized charging stations. They put in every effort to make the technology too difficult for laymen to get into, and build the car specifically to make it a bitch to reach into. They integrate "smart" technology everywhere, to keep tabs on where you go, by what route, at what time, at what speed, and have kill switches for any part of it.

It's no coincidence they've been trying to get people to jump to public transport, where you ride a controlled coach over a controlled route, while letting public roads clog and deteriorate.

In the end, they will leave you just your bicycle, which makes it a bitch to transport anything or take effort to go anywhere faster than 20mph.

Is it? MIT doesn't think so. Their math shows that EVs are cleaner even on grid power, because the grid is not 100% fossil fuel powered like a car engine is, and electric motors are six times as efficient.

Yeah, sure, it's an improvement. But it's not that hard to improve, just take a fucking bike, move less, there you go. Better solution already, no technology involved.

Fine in my book, but it's too soon for pure electric cars. Toyota is doing a good job with their plug-in hybrids. As soon as we get pure electric ranges of around 100km on those things, the oil industry is going to bleed heavy.

>>127703049
Good point. The only way for the change to happen is for "normal" cars to become too expensive in comparison, right? So we need government spendings or financial advantages to motivate people at this point.
>>
>>127702396
So what? Heat pollution is inevitable no matter what energy source you use or how clean it is. The earth can only shed waste heat via infrared radiation because space is a vacuum. We've got 300 years if we continue to up our energy use by 2% a year before ambient temps are sufficient to boil the top layer of the oceans.

See thats what im talking about.You dismiss it without giving it time to think about because it challanges the conservation of momentum.Just like Einstein said nothing can move faster than light,yet Alcubierre found a way.
You may got stuck at conservation of momentum as your holy law,but even nasa mentions the possibilty that it pushes on the vacuum plasma, or the finns paired photons theory.

>Plus it slays the oil industry jew, so it's 100% okay in my book
you are an idiot
so instead of oil industry, you gonna have batteries industry(becuase batteries are shit) and the cost of maintain the car will be higher and electricity and charging the car at stations will cost more.
and overall it won't save you any money, might even cost you more the oil car.

Because we're using things right now that depend on that law being correct. I'm pragmatic that way.

>Just like Einstein said nothing can move faster than light,yet Alcubierre found a way.
He found a way the same way that Maxwell found a way to create perpetual energy, he invented a mathematical magic bullshit that did the thing the theory needed to work. Maxwell's Demon and Alcubierre's warp drive are rhetorical thought experiments.

You can disprove anything if you just magic up variables.

Pretty sure we've had air pressure since before humans, look at pterodactyl.

That is true but it is also true that you can't have a square root of negative 1 apples in the real world. Math is a useful abstract, not an absolute one.
>>
>>127705712
I dont think a pterodactyl knew what airpressure has to do with the ability of flight.
Thats the point.Science took a retarded stance,and decided you cant do this or that because this and that makes it impossible, and doesnt consider that there might be something additional that makes it possible.Science reached dogma level in the last 50 years.What a coincidence again.

Science is a method not an entity, Lord Kelvin spouted shit because he was like 4,000 miles from the wright brothers and didn't keep up with the literature. The wright's had manned unpowered gliders for years before the gasoline engine was invented and they could finally stick a motor on their glider with a positive TWR.

>Science reached dogma level in the last 50 years
If we're wrong do you think it's a coincidence or something that we're able to communicate across the planet with electrons?

Is it dogmatic for you to say that i exist, even though you're only partially sure that i do? That's all science does.

I think their momentum will depend on either some pretty serious and affordable battery advancements OR large investment at different levels of government and private sector to build more public charging stations.

This will surprise you but we actually enforce speed limits.

What does matter is acceleration.

Depends on how hard you're compressing it. At 700 bar (the standard pressure for fuel-cell cars), it's quite energy-dense.

Fuel cells are a waste of time though, for cars at least.
>>
>>127712946
>>127713943

I mean even on octane scale compressed hydrogen is rate at 130 compared to gasoline being from 85 to 105 depending on additives

fucking Saturn V and many other rockets used liquid hydrogen + liquid oxygen as their fuel in at least one stage.

It's literally rocket fuel

So you have to electrolyse water for hydrogen, then you have to compress it.
Significant energy loss right there.

With oil it really depends on the type of oil field you're drilling.

Some oil fields have excellent return on energy investment.

Shale oil and tar sands (which The Donald wants to invest in) has terrible return on energy investment.

Also wasting some wind or solar energy isn't a big deal.
On some days there will be an excess anyways, so why not convert it into hydrogen?
