Bwanji Ngati EV Yanu Ingagwire Ntchito Pakhomo Panu Panthawi ya Kusowa kwa Magetsi?

Kuchaja kwa mbali ziwiri kukusintha momwe timagwiritsira ntchito mphamvu zathu. Koma choyamba, kuyenera kuonekera m'magalimoto ambiri amagetsi.

Unali masewera a mpira pa TV omwe adayambitsa chidwi cha Nancy Skinner pakuchaja magetsi mbali zonse ziwiri, ukadaulo watsopano womwe umalola batire ya EV kuti isangotenga mphamvu yokha komanso kuitulutsanso — kupita kunyumba, kumagalimoto ena kapena kubwerera ku gridi yamagetsi.

“Panali malonda a galimoto ya Ford F-150,” akukumbukira Skinner, senator wa boma la California yemwe akuyimira East Bay ku San Francisco. “Munthu uyu akuyendetsa galimoto kupita kumapiri ndipo akuyika galimoto yake m'kanyumba. Osati kuti adzalipiritse galimotoyo, koma kuti apereke mphamvu ku kanyumbako.”

Ndi batire yake ya 98-kWh, F-150 Lightning imatha kusunga magetsi kwa masiku atatu. Izi zitha kukhala zothandiza kwambiri ku California, komwe kwakhala ndi vuto lalikulu pafupifupi 100 m'zaka zisanu zapitazi, kuposa boma lina lililonse kupatula Texas. Mu Seputembala 2022, kutentha kwa masiku 10 kunapangitsa kuti gridi yamagetsi ya California ifike pamlingo wapamwamba kwambiri wa ma megawatts opitilira 52,000, zomwe zidatsala pang'ono kugwetsa gridi yamagetsi.

Mu Januwale, Skinner adayambitsa Senate Bill 233, yomwe imafuna kuti magalimoto onse amagetsi, magalimoto opepuka ndi mabasi asukulu ogulitsidwa ku California azithandizira kuyatsa magalimoto awiriawiri pofika chaka cha 2030 — zaka zisanu boma lisanakhazikitse kuletsa kugulitsa magalimoto atsopano oyendetsedwa ndi mafuta. Lamulo loyatsa magalimoto awiriawiri lidzaonetsetsa kuti opanga magalimoto "sangangoyika mtengo wapamwamba pa chinthu china," adatero Skinner.

“Aliyense ayenera kukhala nayo,” anawonjezera. “Ngati asankha kuigwiritsa ntchito pochepetsa mitengo yamagetsi yokwera, kapena kupatsa magetsi nyumba zawo nthawi ya magetsi, adzakhala ndi mwayi umenewo.”

SB-233 idapambana mu Senate ya boma mu Meyi ndi mavoti 29-9. Posakhalitsa, opanga magalimoto angapo, kuphatikizapo GM ndi Tesla, adalengeza kuti apanga njira yolipirira magalimoto awiriawiri m'magalimoto a EV omwe akubwera. Pakadali pano, F-150 ndi Nissan Leaf ndi magalimoto okhawo a EV omwe alipo ku North America omwe ali ndi njira yolipirira magalimoto awiriawiri kuposa mphamvu yoyambira.
Koma kupita patsogolo sikumayenda molunjika nthawi zonse: Mu Seputembala, SB-233 idafa mu komiti mu California Assembly. Skinner akuti akufunafuna "njira yatsopano" yowonetsetsa kuti anthu onse aku California apindula ndi kuyitanitsa kwa ndege mbali zonse ziwiri.

Pamene masoka achilengedwe, nyengo yoipa komanso zotsatira zina za kusintha kwa nyengo zikuonekera kwambiri, anthu aku America akuchulukirachulukira akugwiritsa ntchito njira zamagetsi zongowonjezwdwa monga magalimoto amagetsi ndi mphamvu ya dzuwa. Kutsika kwa mitengo ya magalimoto amagetsi ndi misonkho yatsopano ndi zolimbikitsira zikuthandizira kusinthaku mwachangu.
Tsopano chiyembekezo chodzachaja magalimoto awiri chikupereka chifukwa china choganizira za magalimoto amagetsi: kuthekera kogwiritsa ntchito galimoto yanu ngati gwero lamagetsi lothandizira lomwe lingakupulumutseni nthawi yamagetsi kapena kupeza ndalama mukapanda kuigwiritsa ntchito.

Kunena zoona, pali mavuto ena omwe akubwera. Opanga ndi akuluakulu a boma akuyamba kumene kufufuza kusintha kwa zomangamanga komwe angafunike kuti awonjezere kuti izi zikhale zothandiza. Zida zofunika sizikupezeka kapena ndizokwera mtengo. Ndipo pali maphunziro ambiri oti achitike kwa ogula.

Komabe, chomwe chili chodziwikiratu ndichakuti ukadaulo uwu uli ndi kuthekera kosintha kwambiri momwe timayendetsera miyoyo yathu.
