Anyway, fact is most EVs are charged overnight when demand for electricity is low. Chargers already exist that can be set to only charge when other demand is low. Evs already exist that can return power to the grid. This is an evolving, progressing situation and not the nyah, nyah deal breaker you make it out to be. Maybe you'd like to suggest some other path to our transportation future?
You should have quit while you were behind.
Really? Do you seriously think that having 10 or thousands of electric RV's charging during the day is going to help the grid when they are already having rolling blackouts? Seriously? What about the 10's of millions of cars that need charging during the day. You know, the ones that live in the city where they have to charge at a charging station during THE DAY.
Turtle, I think it is you that is falling behind. This was predicted 10 years ago as part of the "Duck Curve" phenominon.
See it real time right here:

Look at the "net demand curve" to see how there is excess generating power during mid day. Crunch time is really just 6 to 9 pm.
