Not that simple. Your neighborhood electrical system may not have been designed to move that many extra electrons into every home, particularly when most people would be charging simultaneously. You would have to have a practical way to keep everybody charged without overloading any part of the system. In addition, most older homes do not have garages and most household seem to have multiple cars so you would have to deal with those practicalities as well. Sure these things can be sorted in time, but they won't be sorted in the 10 years we alleged have left to turn to the tide. Hell, a lot of these problems won't be sorted in ten decades.

A couple of things here. First, we are going to have to change our grid to a distributed grid instead of a point source grid, no matter what. Already here in Portland PGE is beginning to experiment with a VPP. Second, ten decades? Really, you need to rethink that. In 1921 over much of the nations transportation was still powered by horses. There was little to no electricity in rural areas. The first phone I ever used, 1948, was hanging on a wall in a wooden box with a speaker sticking out the front, and a bell shaped ear phone with a cord hanging on the side. And today, change moves about 3 times as fast. As the VPP's prove their worth, you will see a very rapid change in the grid and how utilities use it.

Solar cells were invented before the civil war. Yes 10 decades.

Can you show your math?

Can you actually research a little, in this case simply view the video, before demonstrating that you post without the slightest idea of what you are talking about.

It's not that hard.
1. How much gasoline is consumed in the US in a year.
2. What is the equivalent KWH of that volume of gasoline.
3. How does that compare to the current amount of electricity produced in a year in the US.
Do you know any of those numbers at all?
I've done the math. We need to double our electrical generation.

Your math is as lousy as your research. The numbers are done in the video.

I think there are about 33 kwh per gallon...In 2020, about 123.49 billion gallons (or about 2.94 billion barrels) of finished motor gasoline were consumed in the United States.
and how does that work at night?The Ford F150 EV has a bed cover that is also a battery charger.
