I also noted the part of the article where they need to use natural gas as part of the process. Create CO2 to capture CO2? Electric cars are here today (got my Tesla Model 3 a month ago) and the grid enhancements will happen incrementally as the cars are sold.

I hope they're right, but it seems a wee bit early to put all of our eggs in that basket. Controlling CO2 is a big problem and we're going to need multiple approaches to make progress.
