Momentum is accelerating in the necessary transition from a fossil-fuel-burning automotive fleet to electric vehicles (EVs). This transition will have a big impact on how utility companies deliver the energy needed to charge all of these new battery-powered cars. This helps utilities manage the impact on the electrical grid.
