So the great solution to electricity grid shortcomings is now 'virtual power plants' and EV's as 'grid batteries'
This is where a group of properties in the same grid segment all have solar and battery storage and feed this power back to the grid during peak demand times, to offset the primary grid sources being up shit creek trying to cope with the insane push to net zero and everyone having an electric car.
Depending where you are in the world, various governments have created targets of between 2030 and 2050 to get between 50 and 100 percent full uptake of EV's.
In the same breath, the zealots also want people who own EV's to be able to use them as a 'battery' to feed the grid...
You heard that right...
Why would anyone want to allow their Cult of Electric Jesus net-zero planet-saving EV to become a 'battery' for a 'virtual power plant'?
You don't allow other people to steal the petrol or diesel fuel from your existing vehicle, so why would you let someone else steal the electricity from your EV's battery that you already used to 'fuel up' the vehicle?
Is the law going to require people who continue to own petrol or diesel vehicles to permit random strangers to steal fuel from the tanks?
This is the stupid bullshit EV zealots are pushing here. Remember EV's like rooftop solar are very much a 'haves' vs 'have nots' thing now - if you do not have solar and/or an EV you are a sub-standard citizen.
