Tesla has officially pushed its off-peak charging hours in California back two hours to 9 PM, giving those who wish to avoid higher kilowatt-hour charging rates a slightly later timeframe to abide by. The amount of stress put on the energy grid during the off-peak times is significantly lower than other hours of the day.

Known as “vehicle to grid,” two-way charging works through sending energy to the grid from an EV’s battery future the auto is parked and plugged in. The PG&E grid has confronted a barrage of demanding situations from latter climate. Two-way charging could also be gaining help from the California Legislature.

Also, besides giving you the ability to charge at night when most utility rates are lower, future vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology may allow you to sell some of your stored energy back to the utilities. The demands on the grid would require a lot of infrastructure work without some sort of "energy reservoir" in place.
