The concern that the increase in electric vehicles (EVs) entering the market will collapse the U.S. power grid is outdated. One key solution is charging EVs during off-peak hours, such as overnight when electricity demand is lower.(2) This approach helps balance the load on the grid and prevents overburdening it during peak hours.(2) In fact, studies from California, where over 1 million EVs are in use, show that EV charging constitutes less than 1% of the grid's total load, even during peak demand.(2) This demonstrates that the current grid capacity is sufficient to support a significant number of EVs without issue.(2)Additionally, the impending rise of vehicle-to-grid (V2G) capability offers a promising solution to grid challenges. V2G allows EVs to send stored energy back to the grid during times of high demand (and potentially get paid for doing so), effectively enhancing grid reliability and reducing the likelihood of power shortages.(1) This two-way energy flow between EVs and the grid helps to stabilize the power supply during peak hours, turning EVs into mobile energy assets.While the number of EVs is increasing, implementing solutions such smart charging, V2G, and improving grid infrastructure will contribute to a more resilient and flexible energy system.
