Well companies are recycling them. So one of your points is not true. As for current state of charging speeds, a number of offerings go from 10% to 80% in around 20 minutes for cars with 350 mile ranges. Not quite up to refueling an ICE machine, but not too bad. Plus it only matters mostly for long trips. You'll charge it when not in use at home. Finally, energy storage for 350 miles seems quite adequate to me. So I don't see any big negatives there.
As for building power plants maybe. Is that overall a negative? ICE vehicles must use fossil fuel. If we use fossil fuel to electricity more efficiently and cleanly than using it inside the vehicle a slight benefit at least. Plus the option to use solar, wind, or nuclear if it comes to that. I don't see how we have to build nuclear everywhere for this. Nuclear is a lower carbon generator though expensive in up front costs. As long as it is even close on everything, EVs are generally just better cars to own and use.
I have been running an EV for 3 months now after 10 years of plug in hybrid showed how much better it is to charge at home than to stand at a petrol pump.
The hybrids don't use much petrol at all around home, maybe 10 to 20 gallons per year, with maybe the same again on the few long journeys we do.
I have charged the EV away from home twice since I bought it, I didn't know it well enough to trust the "fuel gauge" at first, on both occasions plugged car in, went into cafe to get hot chocolate, waited to get it, drank it and went back to the car and drove on. Ie pretty well zero time loss, even compared to refuelling with petrol where I would have had to have done that separate to a cafe visit.
So I am very happy with my choice and it fits my needs better than petrol ever did and is much more convenient, quieter and pretty quick.
We are heading for a net-zero power grid here, though objections form well funded oil company lobbyists persist, amazingly. England is probably too population dense to have enough hydro/solar/wind for all use, I expect Scotland can with wind and hydro.
I have solar cells on my roof but only 3.25 kWh so a big help but not enough for all needs in winter.
I would not have bought either an EV or plug in hybrid if I didn't have a place to park and charge at home.
