Then overnight the electric car will charge, benefiting from cheaper power rates due to lower energy demand and making this friendly to the environment. In the same way that consumers of solar panels benefit, those who return energy to the grid can make the most of it saving money on off-peak energy tariffs to charge your vehicle.
