    This chart is pretty shocking, and makes IEA look like idiots. Or maybe it’s malice? The IEA’s founding purpose was to protect the Oil industry. Supposedly they now also work to “promote clean energy transitions”… but if that’s their goal they don’t seem to be doing a very good job.

      Correct. You should add the label that this chart compares forecast demand for EVs vs actual demand, along with the revised forecasts.
