Currently about 35% of the uk electricity is renewable (wind, solar). There is a huge difference between renewable and net zero (sustainable) - the latter (bio mass etc) is taking from Peter to pay Paul.

I know ICE cars will still be produced, but not here. So it’ll be used ICE only, or new/used EV come 2035, in this country anyway. Unless some other alternative option comes out by then, or the Government change the deadline (again).
We’ll have to start erecting some more wind farms to generate power then. 35% ain’t going to cut it.
Lots to be done and lots of money required to do it.
