I want to phase out fossil fuels faster than anybody. I want to phase them out at economy damaging rates, war-footing rates. I also fail to see how batteries, which need complete replacement every 10 years if they're kept within specified charge cycling range, are any better than gas.

A national electricity grid would have a minimum 100 year design life and use a fraction of the resources of a nation's worth of battery plants, especially fewer (actually none) rare-earth and micro-minerals, many of which are mined only in North Africa by slave labour. Batteries don't solve climate change issues, they add in appalling social issues and continue to make already too wealthy people even moreso.
