100A [domestic] supply, main switch, EV chargers, hot tubs, electric boilers and diversity

As the cash-cow climate change crusade gains more momentum and central electric boilers take up [again], along with hot tubs, electric showers (though they might be fed from boilers), induction hobs …  then  there is battery EV [charging] being foisted for hours at a time and so on.

In this new world order once everyone is converted, will supply and switching diversity be easier to assess (if it ever was not)  ?

  • I can't imagine it would be that difficult.

    The DVLA will be able to work out the number of miles the average car does in a year, from MOT records.  The miles-per-kWh of electric cars reasonably consistent across models.  So we can work out how many kWh the average car will need in a year.

    Heat pumps are more efficient than night storage heaters.  So if we can handle the diversity for current all-electric homes, then ones with heat pumps will be a bit lower than that.
