This fellows numbers don't seem right to me, but I don't carry stats around in my headaccurate? or not?Phil Boettge The US uses 33% of its electrical capacity for industrial purposes. Of its industrial uses, 16% are for refining petroleum products. So 5.3% of the US electrical capacity is used for refining petroleum.Replacing all of America's cars with all-electric vehicles would increase American electrical demand by 21.7 to 43.4 percent, depending on whether one accepts 6 or 3 miles per kilowatt. So replacing internal combustion engines with all-electric ones would use 4 to 8 times as much electricity as refining petroleumChoose Love, KO I don't shop where I can't charge.
