I keep wondering when we acquired this surplus of electricity. Last I heard power grids were aging and unable to keep up with demand. And that was before they started shutting down coal plants.

While EVs might increase the amount of electricity the U.S. consumes, the investment required to accommodate them may be smaller than it appears. Many regions already have sufficient generation capacity if vehicles are charged during off-peak hours. The energy storage on board EVs could provide the flexibility needed to shift charging times and help grid operators better manage the supply and demand of electricity.

Don’t forget the savings from the curly cue and led bulbs!

I think you misunderstand. “Green” cars don’t run on electricity; they run on leftist hopes and wishes, and there seems to be an abundance of that.
