1.45-TWh= 9.6-million phevs

with a back-of-the-envelope calculation,
the anticipated 2028,1.45 TWh worth of battery production, would support the manufacture of 9,100,000 plug-in hybrid cars/year, with a range of 47-miles;which by the old EV1 metric,would satisfy the range needs of 90% of urban commuters.
As of December,2018,the global population for EVs was 5.1-million.
300-million electric two-and three-wheelers.
460,000 electric buses.
5-million low speed EVs
The EIA believes we'll see EV ownership at 125-million EVs by 2030,and a pathway to 220-million EVs under a more aggressive 'climate change'-fighting scenario.
2050 is a date tossed around,after which we ought to be carbon-zero if we're to dodge a bullet.
