This will probably become a non-problem. If you have a 10-20kW PV array on your
room, and a 10-30kW battery bank in your garage with an Islanding
inverter,(like is available today in Calif) (utility in a box) for charging
your EV and grid feed where you additionally get reimbursed by backfeeding the
grid for frequence and voltage stabilization, there will be millions of
"utility nodes" remember, the Tesla gigafactory says 30% of batteries will not
be for EV's but "stationary storage"
--------------------------------------------
Thinking on this a bit more...we're also likely to see some interesting
social dynamics emerge. Imagine a bunch of people, all EV owners, visit a
fellow EV owner. Access to
the charger(s) would quickly wind up being similar to access to the bathroom.

Just as we went from a time when nobody had indoor plumbing to today when few
houses are sold with fewer than three toilets...we can look forward to a
similar transition with
EV charging stations.

Will Grandma's pension be enough to pay for all the kids coming home to visit?
