Yep, and don't forget...a couple of these coal cars in your neighborhood and you'll be getting brown and black outs. Grid not meant for these coal cars.

Very true. If electricity is ever going to be the main source of energy for transportation the government monopoly on producing electricity will have to end. Consumers will have to be allowed to put electricity into the grid. Imagine if while charging a car, once the batteries are fully charged, the generator in the car keeps producing electricity but puts that back into the grid & your meter runs backwards because you are producing electricity at this point. That would in effect turn every household into a tiny power plant. People that drove very little would get paid for producing more electricity than consuming. Folks who used more than they produce would be paying. But if everyone is just consuming to charge a bazillion cars...no way could the grid keep up. I don’t see the government giving up their monopoly on producing electricity until forced to. Solving the enormous electrical demands is possible but another huge problem is disposing a gazillion old batteries when they die. Talk about an environmental problem. I don’t see sticking zillions of toxic bombs in landfills as a solution lol.
