how much infrastructiure do we need to create to support a major switch to evs. charging networks will have to grow substantually. find estimates of network size as we go forward. cop26 had most countries (minus usa, germany, china) sign on to no new ice cars by 2040, and a number of mfgs have said last ice will be 2030, 2035.
