This might become moot if the push for 'community batteries' I see over here takes hold. Rather than giant battery arrays 200km away near a solar farm, smaller arrays in your postcode soaking up rooftop solar and offpeak grid. Maybe the business model for the modern service station is to install extra batteries and make money with the excess capacity doing energy arbitrage.
