Ironically, more electric cars would help with grid stability. Everyone having access to a giant mobile battery smooths everything out like a buffer because you can plug into it for supplemental power when demand surges, and recharge when there's excess supply. |
Actually it wouldn't matter because the aging infrastructure is a large part of the problem. Never mind that EV's would have to be plugged into the grid and not in rush hour traffic during the times that the rolling blackouts occurred.
For decades it seems as if Sacramento is notorious for creating problems, having business solve them and then calling the solutions (aka Band-Aid) progress.
