I'm not opposing electric vehicles, I'm just trying to show a different reality here.

In Spain you need a permit for almost anything and one of the reasons we don't have more chargers is just because of bureaucracy.

Right now, if I had a car and it was electric, the only option I would have to charge it is running an extension cord from my balcony to the car (Supposing I parked right in front of my apartment).

This is a real challenge and I wish the government would focus on the infra needed to: Assemble batteries in the country, create more and more charging points (As I said before, 3 streets had a cost of 200k€, and they are not even covered completely) and remove taxes from electric vehicles. I think that's what works but here they chose to make life difficult for everyone with a gasoline-powered vehicle.

At least the government is investing in public transport

So it's a political problem, not a financial problem. Then why mention the price of copper?

So it's not the copper, but the bureaucracy then?

Could that maybe be fixed by the political will that Putin is creating all over Europe?
