Gary, I was talking to a plant manager of a power plant. He told me after 5 o'clock or so, power plants.... even in the most brutal of conditions turn the wick down to about 35%
of capacity. This is when 90 % of EV owners charge their batteries (at home). So the power company's are licking their lips hoping to sell electricity during these times of calm.Its all about money, right ?
