That wasn't the point. Could the power grid in your neighbor and 10s of 1000s of neighborhoods across the country withstand a doubling of demand? How many families in your neighborhood will need to charge 2 or more vehicles per night at least 5 nights a week? Wouldn't such a scenario make nighttime the new peak demand period?
Yes, we can get there slowly upgrading a little at a time. The difference we're discussing though, in this side topic to the OP, is how fast private management and investment will get us there vs government agency management and investment.
