Electric vehicles are going to be banned in Switzerland
On one hand, emphasis is being laid on the adoption of electric vehicles in all the countries of the world. There is also a country which is preparing to ban EVs.
Electric vehicles may be banned in this country
Let us tell you that Switzerland, which is considered to be the richest country in the world, can become the first country in the world which is going to ban electric vehicles. This step is being taken in Switzerland so that there is no shortage of energy in the country in winter. The country of beautiful snow-capped mountains imports most of its electricity from neighboring countries like France and Germany.
Russia-Ukraine war changed the situation
At the same time, it is also worth noting that this time the Russia-Ukraine war has reduced the supply of natural gas, due to which there has been a huge reduction in energy production in these countries. This is the first time in decades that these European countries are facing energy shortages. France is also importing energy for the first time in years to meet its needs.
The country is facing power shortage
It is noteworthy that the Swiss Federal Electricity Commission Elcom had already said in June this year that a reduction in nuclear power generation in France could reduce the power supply for the winter. Germany is also facing a similar situation. The country is barely able to generate energy for itself this year due to low energy production due to some global issues.
Ban on ev charging
ELCOM has come up with a 4 step plan to reduce energy consumption. Winter is very difficult in Europe. Cities may impose restrictions on EV charging to reduce electricity usage. In such a situation, EV will be allowed to charge only when it is very important.
