There have been vigorous debates pro and con in the United States and elsewhere over whether electric grids can support EVs at scale. This situation is not true universally. The answer is a nuanced “perhaps.” His team surveyed “twenty-nine utilities for detailed voltage data from their AMI systems, and no one had it.”

Unlike those you may have grown accustomed to seeing, many of these stations don’t just charge electric cars—they can also send power from vehicle batteries to the local utility grid for use by homes and businesses. Debates over the feasibility and value of such vehicle-to-grid technology go back decades. This is good for the grid.
