> This assumes you only charge at home because you can, and only work first shift.

No it doesn’t?

Most charging can be done at night when power is both cheap and plentiful. The fact that only 5% of people work third shift is testament to this!

No one is pretending that ALL charging is at off-peak hours. But the fact is that not only can most charging be off-peak much of it will be. This is excellent news you should be happy about!
