All this talk of 28kW batteries is wrong. The batteries fitted to current models are 24 or 30 kW
hours. That is their capacity, but the load on the charging supply depends entirely on the charging rate, the level from which they are charged and the maximum level to which they will be charged. Nissan themselves advise not regularly charging them to more than 80% capacity, saying that it has a negative impact on battery life.
The majority of chargers used domestically are rated at about 6-7kW, allowing them to be linked to a standard (dedicated) 32A circuit and charge a fully discharged battery in about 6 hours. If it was to become widespread as e-cars gained popularity, there would be similar supply load characteristics to domestic electric storage heating where loads are determined by the previous day's use. On warmer winter days, the heat requirements are a fairly short top-up at the beginning of the low cost tariff period. On colder days the demand goes deeper into the night. Owing to the higher relative cost of electric power over gas, storage heating is becoming less popular, but the distributors are well versed in both demand management and fulfilment. Car use for many would follow similar patterns except that bad driving conditions (e.g. cold weather) would more likely lead to an overall reduction in battery drain through reduced mileage.
Of course there will be the few
'battery heads' who go for the industrial chargers at their homes, but that might attract special tariffs outside the normal domestic ones and more like commercial restrictions where punitive charges are applied to peak loads during times of distribution system stress. With intelligent load monitoring, these installations could actually be remotely switched off at times.
The key to all e-car acceptability is the maximum availability of renewable power, - even if it does spoil some peoples view, - Goring Gap types, get ready to whinge!
