| Comment | Given the total energy use is the same (one load of washing is one load of washing, one EV charge is one EV charge), isn't incentivising time-shifting of electricity demand actually better than storage, as it effectively achieves the same thing (resolving temporal imbalances between renewable generation and electricity demand) but without any round trip losses?
(assuming we're restricting it to things that don't bug your neighbours, like EVs and heating systems) |
