Meanwhile, electric vehicle owners are being warned not to charge their batteries during certain hours for fear of blackouts.
"Tesla is asking its customers in Texas to avoid charging their electric vehicles during peak times in order to prevent overtaxing the state’s power grid. The alerts come as Texas’ grid operator, the Electric Reliability Council of Texas or ERCOT, is calling on residents to conserve electricity during the recent heatwave, as the system is being pushed to near-emergency conditions," the Verge reports.
The vehicles being pushed by Buttigieg are not clean or green as the Biden Administration claims.
