FreddieUK I read the report you cite, which a few others here seem not to have done.
It does clearly state this is a matter under discussion,
not a policy being adopted.
It also clearly states
restrictions on electric car use are one of several options, and
not top of the list.
It concludes with:
So: Should there really be a power shortage in Switzerland, according to the draft, partial driving bans for electric cars could be considered as one of numerous upstream measures.
[My itlaics]. So it does
not say Switzerland is short of electricity!
Though I did find the suggested "necessary" reasons for using the car rather vague. Medical, professional and law-court attendances yes. Shopping, maybe, especially for rural residents.... Driving to a "religious event" though? Funerals and perhaps already-organised weddings, yes, but otherwise why not any cultural / social event?
