    I completely agree, however the ‘law’ doesn’t at present- eg the green strip on the number plates of new EV’s( which are recognised by cameras Etc) are not allowed on the ePower cars- because the battery power supply ( ie the engine) generates pollution via the exhaust! Power Stashions do not generate pollution of course – sorry about the spelling my tongue is firmly caught in my cheek! The only , theoretical, difference between the traditional EV and the ePower, is the way the battery is charged, otherwise , in every respect, the ePower is an EV , and if these super duper ‘million ‘ hour batteries become viable, no doubt they will be scaled down and could be available for ePower vehicles?

    I guess everybody gets confused by the petrol engine and an exhaust system. It’s just EV’s move the exhaust system to the power stations. We had to start up a coal powered station recently to keep up with demand.

    Maybe, ePower might become a main player, if the battery has slightly more capacity. Also, if the move in F1 to fully carbon neutral synthetic fuel proves successful.

    I have ASD and thus have difficulty with social and understanding information, written and verbal. I process information in logical blocks, before I reply. Sometimes I'm right and sometimes I'm wrong.
    I also have a corneal visual condition, which makes me visually impaired without daytime, or daytime bulbs, among other disabilities/conditions.
