EV charge times

Apparently from September 2021 charge points placed on the U.K. market are required to be factory set not to charge during peak times, 8-11am and 4-10pm. Although the parameter can be altered by the user, it is a recognition that things are getting tight.

    Apart from the demand on the grid. It's a grid lock with traffic in some areas at peak times and electric vehicles will not alleviate that problem. There are simply too many vehicles on the roads. Also residential areas, have escalating parking problems with vehicles being parked on pavements and other areas, causing a hazard. For starters only, I think it will eventually become law that single occupants in a driven car unless a taxi etc., will be made taboo. 

    Further, blame seems to concentrate on live stock etc. as a source of pollution, but the human animal farts and belches as well, with little being said about the number of people and the birth rate. One could also accept the fact, that we are all merely tenants in an ageing world with borrowed time.
