One reason is because as the grid shifts to solar and wind, less and less of the energy that powers electric cars, and goes into making electric cars, will come from burning fossil fuels.
All the arguments against EVs are wrong - by Noah Smith
Ultimately everyone who drives is going to drive an EV; the simple logic of cost, and the reverse network effect from gas stations becoming unprofitable and disappearing, will push the transition to completion.

n another recent work, GPT-3 was employed as a pedagogical agent to stimulate the curiosity of children and enhance question-asking skills (Abdelghani et al., 2022). More specifically, the authors automated the generation of curiosity-prompting cues as an incentive for asking more and deeper questions. According to their results, large language models not only bear the potential to significantly facilitate the implementation of curiosity-stimulating learning but can also serve as an efficient tool towards an increased curiosity expression (Abdelghani et al., 2022).

l. There’s a flip side of this coin, though. Where China can’t leverage disruption — i.e., in established markets with lots of proprietary technology where what Christensen called “sustaining innovation” is the key to success — China will struggle to break in.

China’s sudden surge of auto exports to Europe is largely about its dominance in EVs.

One factor behind Chinese scale is its huge population. But there are other factors — the ability to easily get lots of land on which to build factories, for example, which is exactly the opposite of how things work in the U.S. Another is China’s massive energy resources, including both clean energy and very dirty coal.
Which industries will China dominate? - by Noah Smith
Scale is why China dominates a lot of primary industries — things like mineral processing and fertilizer. These are low-margin activities, meaning that you have to do them in absolutely massive amounts to be profitable in a competitive market.

Which industries will China dominate? - by Noah Smith
China’s two key advantages are disruption and scale; this will allow it to dominate many new industries where existing stores of knowledge aren’t a big advantage, and older technologies where producing large amounts cheaply is key.
