Electric cars can benefit everyone!
Electric cars can benefit everyone!
I'm especially referring to those who DON'T use electric cars!
The logic is simple. IF vehicle charging is planned and encouraged to take place OFF-PEAK, the available GWs in the "valley" will be used.
And then there will be more kWh sales BUT with the SAME capacity (currently) dispatched by the ONS (National System Operator).
In other words, the total cost of the energy delivered will be lower compared to the capital investment made, which would be great for everyone. BUT, it will be necessary to PLAN, ENCOURAGE everyone involved through well organised signals (time of use rates, demand response programs, etc.).
DOES Brazil have the conditions, interest and desire to make it happen?
