You have to admit, that if everyone in Australia was to buy an EV tomorrow the grid would not cope.
Considering this, when do you think Australia will be ready for everyone to own EVs?
Not being smart but if it is not that complex, then try and explain to someone as dumb as me.

100% EV is not going to happen overnight, there is plenty of time.
To phase out all ice cars will take 20 years, if we stop selling new Ice cars by 2030.
20 years ago Australia has a population of 20 million and people were saying how are we going to handle more people in Australia ?
What about the infrastructure and schools etc blah blah...
We have now an extra 5 million people in Australia.
So in 20 years Australia was able to handle the increase electricity usage of 5 million more people plus people use more electricity overall now.
Other countries have had even greater increases in populations in cities.
