Wont all these cars require us to build even more power plants? The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) estimates that the current power grid could handle many tens of millions of cars plugging in at off-peak hours before wed have any capacity issues [See EPRI article PDF ]. How about a car-mounted wind-generator?
