average daily distance is 40 miles. Average consumption is 0.346kWh per mile. That is 13 KWh per day. I was talking about overnight only, because you definitely don't want everyone to charge their EVs during peak hours, so that is around 10 hours, you need about 1.3 KW constantly during that time. BTW, why did you mention duration of 24Hours, but then said it's only needed overnight? If you have 2 EVs per family, that is 2.6 KW. It takes us to 26 large incandescent lightbulbs (I can't barely find 100W anymore) or 260 LED bulbs. This all assumes that the EV plays nice with the grid and only charges at the minimum draw, rather than as fast as it safely can. If a Tesla charges at 48AMPs, that (5KW) is going to be MUCH larger than a lightbulb). It's not as simple as: one light bulb is the same as one EV...I agree it's not an insurmountable problem, I don't even think it's the biggest problem with EVs(batteries are), but you can't just handwave it away.
