Swiss to "restrict" use of electric cars

Electric cars are great, if you can charge them. Electric car journeys could be restricted in Switzerland under plan to deal with energy shortages

One of the other news sources that quoted this article, started with "Winter is coming!" Heh.

Electric cars could be banned from making non-essential journeys in Switzerland this winter under a Covid lockdown-style plan to deal with potential energy shortages. 

Emergency proposals have been drafted by the government that could see buildings heated to no more than 20 degrees Celsius, shop opening hours reduced and streaming services limited. 

Because Europe has gone all-in on solar and wind, they find themselves facing winter with the prospect of no power. And so they are going to lock you down for other-than-COVID reasons.

Serfs weren't allowed to leave the land either.

Switzerland is bracing for an energy crisis this winter due to its reliance on imports to sustain the country through the colder months. 

Because you shouldn't have to produce what you need. Until it turns out that you can't buy what need from others.

Modern civilization was nice while it lasted.
