It is almost like... everyone is starting to plug in giant electric things that must be charged!

Justifying rolling blackouts in the future.

Something unusual is happening in America. Demand for electricity, which has stayed largely flat for two decades, has begun to surge.

Completely unexpected!

These people are idiots beyond idiots they forced everyone to use electric everything and now they are getting upset because people are using electricity. They really don’t want us to have an economy or anything modern these are very very bad people.

That's way too true! If you want real world numbers, the 16K miles we charged our EV at home last year added about 4,900 kWh to our power demand for the year. Call it 400 kWh per month to drive 1,300 per month. Of course, if you have tons of home solar and do your homework on making it work efficiently for you, an EV can be valuable. But most people don't do that.
