Oh that's good that it sounds authentic, because cities all across the world must get enough solar power to charge electric cars without pulling from the power grid all day long, right?

- jeltz 14y agoThose are connected to the grid though and will send excess power to the grid, and I assume when there is on solar power they will get their power from the grid. Having them connected to the grid makes way more sense since then you can sell excess power and use the grid to fuel the few cars arriving at night.

- UnoriginalGuy 14y agoThere is very little traffic at night.
