Great, just what we need to eliminate range anxiety and encourage EV ownership: Limiting when you're allowed to charge your car on all chargers.

I generate my own power. How will that work?

@vik they don’t need to force scheduling. They just need to give discounts for charging out side of peak hours and the “problem” will fix itself.

@haakon Not if there is a requirement on people to use the power at that point to, say, keep their job. Then it just becomes a most excellent revenue stream and does not actually reduce demand.
