    Im west coast Canada where central heat is more of a new home thing, every previous home has baseboard heat in every room. This is true in condos and town homes also. So every winter the grid handles every non new single family dwellings use of baseboard electric heat. I don’t see this being an issueto have an EV that can charge in late hours or at lower draw if needed

      When I saw this post, I also thought about places like Camp, California, who weren’t so lucky in terms of having a safe electric infrastructure. I imagine it might be trickier to shift over in those types of areas.

      It’s awesome that they managed that in BC. I hope more places gain that kind of stability.
