One of the beauties of EV is how practical (and cheap) it is to charge at home vs sitting around waiting at a "gas station" at 3-4x the cost.We will have to build out our electrical supply to accommodate new load, but that can be rolled into the replacement process. Most of our generating capacity is 50 years old, and some is approaching the century mark. It has to be replaced anyway, so build bigger and better then next time.
And when charging at home the natural time to charge is during the night when our power grid has a generating surplus. Selling power at night to EVs generates revenue the utility would not otherwise receive. Revenue to expand day time capacity, and therefore night time capacity.
