I had a manual transfer switch at my home. I chose six circuits that provided for the furnace, fridge, freezer, computer, light in the bathroom, and a few wall plugs. I never came close to overloading the Kipor Ti3000 generator (2800 VA). That part of the technology is well established.
If every home had 14 kwh of storage, the grid would be far less likely to fall over. Having a BEV connected to the grid may be under the category of "enlightened self interest". Examples are water, and sewer services.
If every new home was required to have 5 KW of solar panels it would go a long ways to reducing power bills. Add the BEV into the mix and each house has the ability to be autonomous.
With panel prices under $1 per watt, and the cost of a single nuclear plant at $5.50 per watt (low ball price) makes about zero sense to me to use nuclear power.
Oil and gas are far to valuable to be being burned, and there is not an infinite supply.
