Was that the one published by the group funded by a shell company owned by the Aston Martin director’s wife? The real number is more like 30000 km, but it depends on the local grid. Some places are better, some are worse.

You’re going to be really mad when you find out how petrol and diesel are made

It depends if anything distorts the market. If not, reduced demand should lead to temporarily reduced prices, then reduced supply and stabilisation of prices at a similar level. If demand keeps reducing, the same should happen, but the economies of scale are slowly lost, so the price goes up from its historical low.
Realistically, there will be some distortion, so it may be that the price paid for coal varies a lot in different parts of the world based on policy, lobbying and existing infrastructure. I think coal is clearly on its way out in Europe though. It’s already becoming an issue for things like preservation steam railways here, with alternatives being explored to deal with the effective death of coal.

It’s doable with sufficient overbuilding of renewables and a bit of storage. I’m looking forward to seeing what ideas people come up with for the times when there’s significant excess energy available.

Are you referring to the manufacturing of hardware like solar panels and wind turbines?

Klean Kanteens are nice, both the insulated and non-insulated options. Hydro flask also nice, but only available with insulation

It takes less effort for you to be wrong than it does for me to correct you in detail.
