Moleculen-infra (aardgas, waterstof, olie) heeft veel minder ruimte nodig dan E-infra. Bij opslag scheelt het factor 200-1000.
De (gedeeltelijke) transitie van gas/olie naar elektriciteit gaat daarom gepaard met fors meer ruimtegebruik.
Het is niet anders.

This is on you, Angela. You fed Russia with money and rewarded every act of aggression with shiny new pipelines. The least you could do now is have the decency to shut the hell up.
