TLDR: 30% electric power increase or about 6.5 years if we expand at the same rate as we did air conditioning, 4%/year.

Interesting point, I've often wondered how EVs will affect our power demands. Remember that Elon is in the solar game too so it's kind of a win win for him. Probably explains why he's got a hard on for Bitcoin too.. it's very power hungry.
