Green Energy Fail: Electric Bus Stranded At G7 After Charging Stations Fail

Climate Change Dispatch by James Delingpole on Jun 14, 2021

An electric coach that drove from London to the G7 site to promote the vital importance of green energy has got stranded in Cornwall because it could not find anywhere to recharge its batteries.

According to Cornwall Live:

Planet Mark, the organisers of the Zero Carbon Tour, successfully travelled from London to the Eden Project, a distance of 263 miles with one recharge, in the electrically-powered Yutong coach.

However, in order to make the return leg through the South West of England the coach needs a recharge.

But with 60 to 70 miles it has found that there are no serviceable chargers left on the network and the five that they attempted to use in Cornwall were unable to charge the bus.

According to Planet Mark, this is a sign that more ‘investment’ (ie taxpayer money) needs to be splurged on electrical charge points.

But perhaps the real lesson of the story is that the green transition to ‘Build Back Better’ promoted at the G7 summit is hopelessly optimistic and will cause chaos and delays everywhere it is tried.

  So Planet Mark planned a tour to the extreme SW peninsula of England and didn't verify that functional charging stations were available?!

The author is ASSUMING the plan is to "electrify the world".

It isn't. The plan is to kill off combustion engines in order to force people to move back to cubicles in the city,where it is easy to keep an eye on them,and to control them.

"Protecting the environment" is just the tool/excuse they are using to get people to accept this after decades of moving to the suburbs to live in single-family homes with lots of yards and very little,if any,government supervision.
