    So by your definition there is only

    • Plugged in 24/7 = Continuous Load
    • Not 24/7 = Intermittent

    Jesus, thankfully I also size electrical systems and I would never hire you.

      Just because you have a job doesn’t mean you are good at it.

      I have an an electric car that has a 66kwh battery and I track everything. It’s not even in the top 3 categories of usage in my house. It only runs a few hours when I plug it in, which is 1 or 2 times a week. It also only charges at night, because the car has this super advanced technology where it can tell what time it is.

      Every time these stories come out all of you people come out of the woodwork with your “the grid can’t handle it” bullshit, but it seems you all haven’t got the slightest fucking clue or are just being disingenuous. All you do is regurgitate long debunked Facebook myths and repeat them for every new story that mentions EVs in any way hoping to convince some more suckers.

      The power company in my region is literally telling people in advertisements they should install heat pumps and buy EVs. Why the fuck would they do that if it would collapse their infrastructure?
