So since we use the least power at night, what will happen when everybody suddenly starts plugging in their cars at night all over the country?

The cars will be equipped with smart chargers that will cut in as people turn off their lights and go nite-nite.

The move to electric or more specific EREV will be gradual. There won't be a situation where everybody suddenly plug in their car. It's about as likely as everyone flushing their toilet at exactly the same instant. That would overwhelm the Water Supply System and cause it to crash.

What will happen over time is the demand for more electricity will cause more power plants to be built. Hopefully by this time we will have a different occupant in the White House and a different Congress. If we elect serious people (not a certainty) then we will build more Nuclear Power Plants.

Remember EREV vehicles, Coal Gassification and Nuclear Power mean energy Independence.
