minus-squareAbolishBorderControlsNowlinkfedilink1•edit-21 year ago@matthewtoad43 @BrianSmith950 @Ardubal @Pampa @AlexisFR @Wirrvogel @Sodis The maths on this is fun. There are 32million cars in the UK now. 400,000 EVs would store 20gwh. If we used 30% of the battery capacity, this would be 1.2 million EVs. Obviously you need cars that work both ways. I think this means cars with fast charging and only some are comparable. But this is a technical problem. We could buy 1.2m EVs and set up a car share scheme for the cost of 1 nuclear plant

Both at office and at home? Do you need them to be fast charging, or is V2G at 7.5kW realistic/useful? You’d be lucky to get 30%. IMHO the resource is somewhat limited depending on how much you put into charging infrastructure.
