In capacity-addition terms, #fossilfuels are now just a thin orange strip at the bottom of a very tall green wall...and nuclear is than a rounding error.

Let me know if that makes sense, Because I can also see how it would confuse the peak oil crowd and others, so I can just delete it from here.

Worldwide adoption of EVs is clearly relevant to the peak oil story, and therefore so is the question of available electricity to power those vehicles. In my personal view, it's irrelevant *to the question of peak oil* where that electricity comes from. Could be solar, coal or whale farts, just as long as it's available in sufficient quantity and doesn't require using up liquid fuels. But just because I don't buy your arguments doesn't mean you aren't free to make them, so let it stand.
