- lm28469 4y agoIt's not even remotely close to being the same issue though

- bdcravens 4y agoPerhaps, but a lot of discussions around EVs seems to focus on the state of technology today, while discussing the impact at some point in the future. The implication that cars and the grid won't improve is disingenuous.

Maybe. So it is completely correct to take current state of the network and consider it virtually unchanged for decades to come.
