And it is also I think important to point to what this author is actually suggesting as the direction to go.

Yes , a EV is a dirtier option when compared to walking and or a bicycle... even on RE ... that is the actual claim and direction this author wants.
So when are you ditching all your cars and going 99% walk / bicycle?

RE-EV is and will always be more energy efficient ... that's just the science of how it works.
RE-Gasoline is possible ... and might get cheaper $ some day ... but RE-EV is cheaper today.
Net personal energy usage goes down on RE-EV due to the increased energy efficiency of the net sum system.
