This can lead to power outages in peak hours, particularly as the sun starts to set (and solar generation goes down) but homes remain hot. Access to rapidly dispatchable grid-tied energy storage can help to mitigate issues like this. Electrek’s Take For us EV nerds, V2G has been a dream for a long time. Yes, really).
