Yes, this is a good idea. It would also mean having enough charging stations available, but if the government can allocate money for that, it shouldn’t be a problem.
Yes I think so as it would help combat fossil fuel emissions, reduce congestion, etc. However, it would require significant investments and changes in infrastructure.
Although that is beneficial to the climate, it does not seem very realistic because there are a lot of developing countries who have limited access to electricity.
This practice would only be beneficial if all energy production came from clean sources, meaning eliminating coal and natural gas entirely. If this is not the case, the elimination of gas-powered cars …Read MoreThis practice would only be beneficial if all energy production came from clean sources, meaning eliminating coal and natural gas entirely. If this is not the case, the elimination of gas-powered cars means little in terms of progressing in clean energy.Read Less

Entire industries and infrastructure would need to be changed to support this transition. This also may need to be gradual or people may risk losing their jobs. Also of note is that the lithium needed for electric car batteries is mined in a fashion that is also environmentally harmful.Read Less

This depends on the economic implications of this and environmental impacts that electric car batteries have.
