I've also read that we need to add only 10% capacity to our power grid to be able to switch 100 million cars to EVs if we charge them all at off peak demand. This makes sense to me, we aren't using a ton of power at 1am so we could charge up all EVs then and not add too much demand."The electrical grid can't take all the electric cars. What would happen if you all plugged in at the same time! It would crash the system!"
I heard that 3 times in a week a while back so I assumed it was the Fox News topic du jour.
Probably the same thing as when you gas people all try to buy gas at the same time.
Bad things!
But if that's happening then something else bad is also/already happening or that isn't a realistic scenario...
I just tell them. If they really want to know they can look it up anyways, and I have nothing to be embarrassed about. I try not to spend any time worrying about what other people think. If I get the smart ass response of "it must be nice to be able to afford a 6 figure car" I usually just respond with "You're right, it is nice". They want to be annoying about it so can I.I get asked a couple of times, “How much did you pay for it?”
Not sure how to respond but what’s the best response here?
