>Your model is simplistic. No sane electrical engineer would build a system where EVs charge on a uniform schedule evenly distributed across all 24 hours.
Unbelievable.
Your comments are pointless, insulting. Now you are calling me insane.
My findings were confirmed by none other than Elon Musk --who I had the pleasure of working with for two years, BTW--. Here he is, confirming what I have stated when asked the question during a conference:

Regarding my simplistic model:
I went out of my way to point out that this model was "super simplified" and an "oversimplified illustration". We use oversimplified examples to illustrate points, not to provide precise models of reality.
I further explained that creating a proper model "requires writing a reasonably detailed simulation with hundreds of variables"
And then I said "which is what I did years ago in order to try and understand the relationship between EV's, power and energy."
Please. Pretty please. With sugar on top. Stop insulting people with zero-effort, zero-knowledge comments. Instead, try asking questions, engaging in constructive dialog and, perhaps, learning a thing or two.
You are arguing against conclusions that were confirmed by Elon Musk. Not sure what else to say other than, you might want to reflect on just how little of this topic might actually understand.
This is why we go nowhere with this and other issues.
On top of that you post nonsense links. What do you think you are going to accomplish, other than confirming you truly have no understanding of the problem?
We have a 1200 GW deficit in power generation and distribution. No amount of intelligent management is going to make up for this. Not one bit. Not enough. Not even close. This isn't a rounding error, this is a serious hole in future power capacity; a precondition for EV deployment
That's what you need to grok before continuing to post comments anyone with a reasonable command of the subject would easily classify as noise.
