You failed to mention how bad lithium mining is on the environment. The UK is smaller than TX so I can see how electric cars may be viable alternative there but with an increase of electric cars sucking on the grid to charge you are going to end up burning more coal and natural gas. Electricity has to be generated somehow like you stated and the best means of generating electricity IMO is nuclear but we have not built a new nuke plant since like the 60s. The green people want alternative energy but they complain about birds being killed by wind turbines and solar farms destroying the natural desert landscape and dams altering the natural flow of rivers. They offer a million problems but no solutions.
