Germany Electric Car Sales Plummet 30% As Country Floats Idea of Weekend
Driving Ban!

Also: Germany's transportation minister, Dr. Volker Wissing, threatens weekend
driving ban (Fahrverbot) in order to meet climate targets!

The massive sales drop is bad news for the current German socialist-green
government, which aims to have 15 million vehicles on the road by 2030.
Currently there are just 1.4 million!

The dismal trend underscores the unpopularity of electric cars and consumers'
hesitancy when it comes to purchasing them. Electric vehicles are plagued by
limited range, sparse charging infrastructure, steep upfront purchase price and
their huge environmental impact, which involves the largescale mining of rare
earths.

"Their market share has fallen to just 11.9%. This casts a harsh light on the
mismatch between Germany's political goals and the reality of the automotive
market. It is clear that political incentives and measures are inadequate,"
reports Blackout News. "The abolition of the electric bonus at the end of 2023
has revealed another problem. The sector's dependence on state subsidies became
apparent. This has further exacerbated the crisis of confidence in the electric
car market."

Fahrverbot: Germany floats national weekend driving ban!

Another possible reason for hesitancy when it comes to purchasing a new car of
any type may be partly due to the government's general hostility to private
mobility.

Germany's federal minister of transportation, Dr. Volker Wissing, is
threatening to ban driving on weekends by motorists in order othe country "to
meet climate goals set forth by the Climate Protection Act."

"A reduction in traffic to help meet the climate goals would only be possible
through measures that are difficult to communicate to the public, such as
'comprehensive and indefinite driving bans on Saturdays and Sundays,' Wissing
added," so reports Politico here.

Germany's transportation sector would need to reduce CO2 by 22 million tonnes
to meet its climate goals.

So, what's the point of buying a new car when drivers nay be forced to leave
them in the garage every weekend? Germany's economy and energy policy has
turned into a circus run by clowns.

....


All vehicle regos were down 25% in Dec. Amusingly because EV
make up such a large chunk of the market (more than 1/2 mn sold in 2023
up 40% from 2022) it's reported withdrawl of some EV incentive was the
cause for the first downturn in 7y.

German new-car registrations plunged in December
Autovista24, 5 Jan 2024
BEV registrations rising
Across 2023, a total of 524,219 BEVs were registered, up 11.4%, taking
a market share of 18.4%. PHEVs, meanwhile, recorded 175,724 deliveries,
down 51.5% and accounting for 6.2% of the new cars taking to the roads.

Hmmmmm... ...where did they get that figure, loser:

'In February, the total new plug-in electric car registrations amounted
to 42,054, down 5% year-over-year. The market share decreased to 19.3%,
compared to 21.5% a year ago. Nonetheless, the situation is not that
bad, considering that in previous periods, the segment was supported by
generous incentives.'

<https://insideevs.com/news/712459/plugin-car-sales-germany-february2024/#:~:text=Germany%20is%20Europe's%20largest%20car,%25%20year%2Dover%2Dyear.>

But I found the original source, and (as usual), your source was playing
fast and loose with the numbers:

'However, you have to take into account the different number of working
days, which is why looking at the first quarter probably delivers the
better result.'

The 30% drop was for March, you drool soaked twat.

https://blackout-news.de/aktuelles/drastischer-einbruch-elektroauto-zulassungen-in-deutschland-fallen-um-fast-30-prozent/

It's actually a 28.9% drop but, hey, close enough.

EVs are not a solution.

Who brainwashed you into thinking that they solve any
problems? Who brainwashed you into thinking you need
to be emotionally invested in them?

EVs suck. Lithium is a crisis. For real.

https://newatlas.com/energy/iron-air-grid-battery/

The advantages of an iron-air battery are simple and clear. Direct
reduced iron is the cheapest form of iron available, and was previously
mainly used in steelmaking. It's extremely abundant, and totally safe.
So are water and air, the other two main ingredients.

https://newatlas.com/technology/simple-tweak-creates-safer-more-efficient-solid-state-batteries/

Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) has come up with a small tweak that could have big consequences. By making a small change to how a type of solid-state battery is made, the scientists managed to eliminate defects in the electrolyte film, opening the way to safer and more efficient batteries.

Solid-state batteries have a lot of promise. Unlike current lithium-ion batteries, solid-state ones don't contain flammable liquids, which are a major drawback as illustrated by stories of laptops and electric cars bursting into flames. Solid-state batteries are also less toxic, have higher energy densities, charge faster, and survive more recharge cycles without degenerating.

https://newatlas.com/energy/form-energy-iron-battery-plant/

Form's grid-scale batteries are built around huge flat iron-air cells, about a meter (3.3 ft) square, around 50 of which are slotted into modules the size of a washing machine and bathed in a liquid electrolyte. These cells effectively work using the rust cycle; you charge them up by applying energy to iron oxide, turning it back into metallic iron, then add oxygen to initiate the rust process and release energy.

Iron is cheap and abundant, making these modules extremely affordable. They last a long time, they're safe and they're recyclable; if you tear down a battery you can take the metal out and use it elsewhere. These factors all combine to make them an exceptionally affordable form of energy storage, with a Levelized Cost of Storage (LCoS) more than 10 times lower than lithium batteries, even before you take the expected lithium resource squeeze into account.

They won't charge or discharge as quickly as lithium, of course, so
they'll likely work alongside lithium grid batteries in hybrid
configurations, the iron-air batteries dealing with longer, slower load
demands while the lithium packs handle momentary spikes. Form says that
at scale, they'll deliver more than 3 MW of output capacity per acre,
and they'll excel where energy needs to be stored for around 100 hours
or more.

A landmark expose firmly grounded in fact, The Day After Roswell ends
the decades-old controversy surrounding the mysterious crash of an
unidentified aircraft at Roswell, New Mexico, in 1947. Backed by
documents newly declassified through the Freedom of Information Act,
Colonel Philip J. Corso (Ret.), a member of President Eisenhower's
National Security Council and former head of the Foreign Technology
Desk at the U.S. Army's Research & Development department, has come
forward to reveal his personal stewardship of alien artifacts from the
Roswell crash. He tells us how he spearheaded the Army's
reverse-engineering project that led to today's: Integrated circuit
chips Fiber optics Lasers Super-tenacity fibers and "seeded" the
Roswell alien technology to giants of American industry. Laying bare
the U.S. government's shocking role in the Roswell incident -- what was
found, the cover-up, and how they used alien artifacts to change the
course of twentieth-century history -- The Day After Roswell is an
extraordinary memoir that not only forces us to reconsider the past,
but also our role in the universe.


https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9590727/Ex-Navy-officer-says-UFO-technology-100-1-000-years-ahead-United-States.html
Two retired Navy officers warn that infamous UFO Tic-Tac sighting
indicates 'technology that outstrips our arsenal by at least 100 to
1,000 years'

'First of all the aircraft had zero control surfaces, it had no means of propulsion that we could detect, it moved at hyper-sonic velocities and it preceded the pilots to their cap point, so it seemed to have some knowledge of where the pilots were headed ahead of time.

'We don't possess those abilities to do that in our arsenals at the
moment.'


https://apnews.com/article/ufos-uaps-congress-whistleblower-spy-aliens-ba8a8cfba353d7b9de29c3d906a69ba7

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. is concealing a longstanding program that retrieves and reverse engineers unidentified flying objects, a former Air Force intelligence officer testified Wednesday to Congress. The Pentagon has denied his claims.

Retired Maj. David Grusch’s highly anticipated testimony before a House Oversight subcommittee was Congress’ latest foray into the world of UAPs — or “unidentified aerial phenomena,” which is the official term the U.S. government uses instead of UFOs. While the study of mysterious aircraft or objects often evokes talk of aliens and “little green men,” Democrats and Republicans in recent years have pushed for more research as a national security matter due to concerns that sightings observed by pilots may be tied to U.S. adversaries.

Grusch said he was asked in 2019 by the head of a government task force on UAPs to identify all highly classified programs relating to the task force’s mission. At the time, Grusch was detailed to the National Reconnaissance Office, the agency that operates U.S. spy satellites.

“I was informed in the course of my official duties of a multi-decade
UAP crash retrieval and reverse engineering program to which I was
denied access,” he said.

https://newatlas.com/energy/iron-air-grid-battery/
The advantages of an iron-air battery are simple and clear.
Direct reduced iron is the cheapest form of iron available, and
was previously mainly used in steelmaking. It's extremely
abundant, and totally safe. So are water and air, the other two
main ingredients.
https://newatlas.com/technology/simple-tweak-creates-safer-more-efficient-solid-state-batteries/
Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) has come up with a small
tweak that could have big consequences. By making a small change
to how a type of solid-state battery is made, the scientists
managed to eliminate defects in the electrolyte film, opening
the way to safer and more efficient batteries.
Solid-state batteries have a lot of promise. Unlike current
lithium-ion batteries, solid-state ones don't contain flammable
liquids, which are a major drawback as illustrated by stories of
laptops and electric cars bursting into flames. Solid-state
batteries are also less toxic, have higher energy densities,
charge faster, and survive more recharge cycles without
degenerating.
https://newatlas.com/energy/form-energy-iron-battery-plant/
Form's grid-scale batteries are built around huge flat iron-air
cells, about a meter (3.3 ft) square, around 50 of which are
slotted into modules the size of a washing machine and bathed in
a liquid electrolyte. These cells effectively work using the
rust cycle; you charge them up by applying energy to iron oxide,
turning it back into metallic iron, then add oxygen to initiate
the rust process and release energy.
Iron is cheap and abundant, making these modules extremely
affordable. They last a long time, they're safe and they're
recyclable; if you tear down a battery you can take the metal
out and use it elsewhere. These factors all combine to make
them an exceptionally affordable form of energy storage, with a
Levelized Cost of Storage (LCoS) more than 10 times lower than
lithium batteries, even before you take the expected lithium
resource squeeze into account.
They won't charge or discharge as quickly as lithium, of course,
so they'll likely work alongside lithium grid batteries in
hybrid configurations, the iron-air batteries dealing with
longer, slower load demands while the lithium packs handle
momentary spikes. Form says that at scale, they'll deliver more
than 3 MW of output capacity per acre, and they'll excel where
energy needs to be stored for around 100 hours or more.
So completely NOT suppressed.
So completely NOT available to us today, yep - suppressed.
And were lithium batteries being "suppressed" back when people were
talking about the technology but they weren't widely available?
Yes, they certainly were!
Get this through your THICK cunt-head - ALL technology the
goobermint has is easily 100 years past what we get.
Riiiiiiiiight.
Good start, agency shill.

Now about meeting up for some shakes, you game?

"Who killed the electric car."

Google it, you classic conspiracy nutcase.

Lithium alters the human brain. Yes, there are already
trace amounts in our food and water. There's trace
amounts of arsenic & cyanide but I don't see you
advocating for their dispersal across our landscape,
bitch.

Lithium "Quiets" the brain. It chemically lobotomizes
you. Studies show that even tiny amounts in elevation
of lithium has a MEASURABLE impact on human populations.
What they did was study violent crime and suicide
statistic, showing that there was a decrease where
lithium was naturally elevated in the water supply. Still
not large amounts though...

Lithium is water soluble, you twat. It's going to
dissolve into the water, leach into the water and food
supply. We already have significantly stricter controls
on mercury -- especially use, which is HIGHLY restricted
-- yet it's ALREADY a problem, leaching out of landfills.

These are facts, what you ass licking Klimate Kooks can't
deal with.

Yes... bitch... that's why he wrote, in context... this:

"Lithium 'quiets' the brain. It chemically lobotomizes
you."

Lithium is more of a "drug", than a "medicine". Medicine can treat AND cure.
Drugs simply mask the symptoms.

Lithium is no more a "medicine", than a scalpel used to lobotomize.

Leached into the soil, then water... Lithium could affect people VASTLY
different than giving Lithium in the right dosages.

Lithium a mood stabilizer that is a used to treat or control the manic episodes
of bipolar disorder (manic depression). Manic symptoms include hyperactivity,
rushed speech, poor judgment, reduced need for sleep, aggression, and anger.

Somehow, reading over that, I'm reminded of Alan Baker and Rudy Canoza or
whoever he is this hour.

Jack it up then tRudy!

Doesn't seem to have worked on your MPD.

Poor Phil Hendry/tRudy Canoza, he wanted all the notoriety the late Art
Bell had in the fringe radio market, but everyone hated him for his
manipulative voice-overs of characters that existed only in his
tortured mind.

In essence tRudy used Phil's functional mental illness as a proxy for
his own decrepit schizophrenia and MPD.

Bit of a case of life imitating art, this one is...

Well sheeitburgers from Suckramento...here he goes again!

It's another tRudy sock up:
