What fuels would the generation plant use to create this extra power? seems to me that wind solar and hydro would be sufficient so would we in this case go nuclear?

It’s possible the concern for increased demand for electricity will be met with advances in new tech. For instance Toyota is investing quite heavily in hydrogen fuel cells. If perfected the future of the electric car could face the same fate as the Betamax cassette.
