Actually, I read somewhere that the electrical utilities are encouraging EVs because they build the capacity for the peaks - and have difficulty dealing with the valleys. The EVs are expected to be charging after the peak use times -the middle of the day afternoon.
And there's talk of giving discounts to people who let the utility remote control the charger, so they can use your cars as waste dumps for excess nighttime juice.
There's also talk of you not making it home from work the next day if the utility has a problem with output one night, or if there's a giant need for nighttime air conditioning and the utility doesn't turn on your charger.
