Have an uncle who works in power. The way he tells it the power companies are happy with supplemental power during peak loading because peaker plants are unholy expensive, but said companies are worried about what is going to happen when everyone is doing it. It's like electric cars & the gas tax. Electric cars are great! But gasoline taxes paid at the pump are a major source of funds for road maintenance, and electric cars pay none of them. That's ok for now because so few people have them. And that's not to say we don't want electric cars. But we better figure out how to handle them before half of the population is driving them and the DOT is faced with a major budget shortfall.
