Not quite. Charging speed still has long way to compete with fossil fuel refuelling speed.

Airplanes still need fossil fuel. Military vehicles need fossil fuel for fast refuelling. There are simply applications that cannot be fulfilled by electric mobility. Not yet

@incognitotorpedo42 10 seconds to plug in but how long to charge? What if you are in emergency you go somewhere?

@Cant_prove_god it's not free. Solar installation costs. Also maintenance. Not to mention increased insurance cost to you house. Inverters need replacement every 10 years that's $5000

@incognitotorpedo42 Yes, that's true. I've been a proponent of putting biofuel heater in BEVs for colder climate vehicles. Heat pumps are simply not strong enough in -15 degrees, and energy density of fuel is much better suited than battery packs especially for heating.
