Asked when there might be one million electric vehicles on the road that could also feed their battery capacity back into the grid in a two-way exchange, the panelists generally said between 2017 and 2020. Are we going to burn more oil, natural gas, or (gasp) coal to produce it? Cheers — Al Louard 11.
