It doesn’t though. If you convert all ICE cars to BEV tomorrow it doesn’t matter how much you do demand management the grid will be overwhelmed… OR you demand managed so hard that effectively nobody can charge their car regardless of how long they leave it on the charger.
We’ve got enough excess supply coming online as people install solar that we’re seeing the wholesale electricity price occasionally flip negative. We might not have enough power to satisfy 2035’s demand today, but we can accommodate a lot more EVs than we’ve got on the road.
