Your EV shall be the backup battery for the grid to make wind and solar profits possible.

Excerpt:
"The plan: The hapless homeowners will buy the back up battery for the grid and install it in their garage. Sometimes they might drive it too.
Another hidden renewables cost. Stamp.Instead of solar and wind investors paying for the storage they need to produce useful reliable electricity, the plan, apparently, is to force the people to buy electric cars then use their batteries to save the grid instead. When someone plugs their car in to charge, the grid or their house might draw electricity out instead. It’s called two-way-charging, bi-directional charging, Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) or Vehicle-to-Home.

There are moves to make this happen in California, Australia and Europe. There have already been 170 trials around the world costing millions of dollars to try to figure out how to do this. Clearly it’s a big agenda.

Repeated charges and discharges must shorten the life of the battery, and possibly inconvenience car owners too if they get caught without the fuel in the tank. What if there is family emergency at 11pm? (Well, you can catch a cab.) As well as this, every EV added to the grid is like adding “3 to 20 new houses“. Energy losses with batteries are around 20% and worse as the battery ages.

Despite the downsides, network managers are excited at the thought of using the collected mass of EV batteries to stabilize the grid, and it’s being sold as “a great way to reduce your power bills”.
...
A bill has been introduced in California to require all EV’s to have “Bi-directional” charging by 2027. GM just announced it will be standard on one of the EV series by 2026. Tesla plans to have bidirectional charging by 2025, though Elon Musk is unimpressed and says it’s ‘inconvenient‘. South Australia is already running a trial where private electric-car owners can send their battery’s energy back into their own homes."

EV's are a scam like global warming, the federal reserve act and COVID plandemic, designed to steal what little assets honest people have left after the other scams.

    The problem is that it takes so long, it's 3am when it finishes charging. If it tops up at all.

    I don't fully understand the first part of mypost above. Is it trying to say charge your car and then use the battery in your car to run your house??? that is definately liberal logic.

    What about the people that don't have homes/garages/electric cars

    From George F. Will, Newsweek 2011:

    "To progressives, the best thing about railroads is that people riding them are not in automobiles, which are subversive of the deference on which progressivism depends. Automobiles go hither and yon, wherever and whenever the driver desires, without timetables. Automobiles encourage people to think they—unsupervised, untutored, and unscripted—are masters of their fates. The automobile encourages people in delusions of adequacy, which make them resistant to government by experts who know what choices people should make."

    Agreed. They want everyone to be as easy to control as Buydem, but at much lower cost per capita.
    The system they created in 1913 is about to collapse as predictable.
    Genocide, war, and mass slavery is their solution.

    Why the sudden push to rely solely on electricity? Because the electrical infrastructure is all centralized and controllable. And easy to bring down. Alternative energy sources equate to a lack of centralized control = anathema to the globalists.

    So, when exactly do you drive your car???? Also...in order for the car to charge quickly, [which is the only way this scheme will work] you will have to install a fast-charging station, which costs thousands. Will the power company pay for that?

    "Well, you can catch a cab."
    No, you can't. The cabbie just put his cab on the charger and he won't be able to pick you up for four hours. Please schedule your emergencies into acceptable timeframes. Or use your bicycle.

    Meanwhile, I need to replace a shower head in my bath. I'm certain it'll be a lo-flo model that's supposed to save water in Cafilornia every time I use it here in NC. It's gonna get a TURP. (Surgical procedure for men who have trouble peeing.)

    👍 It appears that you do understand it better than the morons who are writing the laws to destroy it.
    Unfortunately they have the power to force compliance - unless we refuse to comply with force.
    Refusal will not be convenient or easy.
    Freedom isn't free.

    As a member of the IEEE power society, let me ask these idiots - "How is this even going to work?" Our backup generator has a transfer switch that only allows power to the house when the grid goes down http://theviews.org/Life%20at%20the%2.... This makes sure we're not putting power on the grid when the linemen are fixing it!

    So, we've now got this EV that we want to power the grid - how does it know that it's safe to put power on the dead grid? Can it only supply power to the live grid? How does it know how much to put in? Are all these EVs controlled by a central server?

    The questions are endless and extremely hard to answer. Putting all of these independent sources on the grid will destabilize it.

    MY EV? No way. I swear by my life and my love of it that I will never own an EV.

    Are used EV batteries being recycled? Or are they being buried like the wind turbine blade cemetery in Wyoming?

    ok
    as soon as my "EV would be full, it gets unplugged...
    sorry, had to drive somewhere....

    I had to look twice to make sure this wasn't Babylon Bee!

    You drive home from work, plug your (mandated) electric car in to charge, and when you get in the next morning to drive to work, instead of being fully charged, it's depleted!

    the story on EVs just keeps convincing me more and more that I don't want one. It seems every day provides a new reason to avoid them.
