This [1] says there were 340,386 truck movements from the Port of LA. Assume all 340,386 trucks need a full charge for each delivery, and have the battery of a Tesla Semi (900kWh). That's 306347400kWh = 306GWh.
Spread over the month, that's 9.87GWh per day, or 411MW. California produces around 500GWh each day, so we need a 2% increase. (Or, equivalently, a 2% decrease elsewhere.)
