Whether on a regional or national basis, where is the corresponding increase in power grid capacity to provide "fuel" for millions and millions of electric vehicles?
Not everyone can wait until night time, and lower usage rates, before plugging in their vehicles for a recharge. So if power grids struggle to keep up when powering homes and businesses during times of extreme heat or cold, how is the grid supposed to cope with tens of thousands of vehicles attempting to recharge at 3:00 pm, for example, when it's 99 degrees outside?
Next is the issue of range traveled on a single charge, and the requisite longer-than-is-acceptable charge times, but for now, let's focus on just the power grid . . . .
