. So on average we will need less equivalent electricity to move all those vehicles from place to place, much less. Maybe it isn’t 42% additional capacity, maybe it’s only 14% additional capacity (over 20 years) … and that will be trivially easy to accomplish.
Don’t most EV owners charge their vehicles at home, overnight? The morning electric power ramp and afternoon peak power are 2 to 4 times the overnight base load. There’s plenty of electric power generating capacity already available to charge a big fleet of EVs overnight.

80% of EV charging is done at home.
