Yes, any place with a lot of solar (daytime) loves having electric cars plugged in during the day, and any place with a lot of wind (which often blows strongest at night) loves having electric cars plugged in at night.
And if the car has a big battery and doesn't need to charge to full all of the time, you can use solar or wind predictions to choose when to charge.
