Electric Vehicles and battery storage will change the way the Texas electricity grid functions
The electricity grid is changing. It used to be that the electricity grid was based on fossil fuels like coal. Now, it is transitioning to one that relies on renewable energy sources like solar and wind.
Subtle changes are already happening with electric vehicles (EV) and battery storage coming onto the scene. More EV drivers are using their cars as a way of storing excess power for later use.
And with the cost of EVs dropping, more people will be able to use them this way.
