In all seriousness, this isn’t much in the end. Most EV owners charge their EV’s at night anyway to avoid California’s peak hour rates. You can set your EV to charge during certain hours when charging at home.
Just wait until everyone is forced to have an EV, there will be some kind of rationing, like you will only be allowed to charge your car during certain hours, and if the battery runs out before, tough titties!
So what happens if everybody follows the instructions to cut usage 4 pm to 9 pm and sets their EV to charge at 10 pm or midnight? You are just pushing that enormous load out a few hours.
The problem with static mounted solar panels(as you know) is that they do not produce much power in the late afternoon or evening. That is unless you have a sun tracking array mounted on a swiveling pole. Peak production is during the middle of the day for roof mounted arrays.
Peak DEMAND is late afternoon/early evening when people get home from work.
This is the same type of issue with wind mills. It tends to be windy during the day. Not as much at night. Therefore, peak production from wind mills comes when primarily during the day. Not as much at night.
This is why all electric grids need to have electric production available to turn on when these other sources stop producing.
Oh really? and if your household has 2 or 3 cars or in a condo or apartment complex?
