end of each power plant's lifespan to replace it with clean energy, we could be done in 25 to 50 years.
Or, you may have information regarding a series
of power plants including, not only location, but power generation, fuel type and CO2 emissions.
Such a shift in demand would cause higher
utilization of power plants at night and therefore less excess power generation capacity available to charge electric cars.
