Smart grids may not be the panacea for electric cars. But they could lead to Internet connections for $5 or maybe $10 a month.
The electrical network will have the capacity to handle the millions of electric cars expected to hit the roads over the next 10 years. “But you can’t charge them in the middle of the day” while at work, says Steve Berberich, vice president of corporate services at the California Independent System Operator. The load will be too great.

Similarly, the grid won’t turn the electric car fleet into a giant battery able to store electricity for peak periods, says Berberich. Some electric car companies, including Better Place, have touted this storage feature as a new age way to handle surging demand on hot summer days.
But one problem stands in the way. “There are not many consumers who will let you de-charge their cars in the middle of the day,” Berberich said at the Berkeley Stanford CleanTech Conference in Menlo Park.
On the other hand, the smart grid could bring an unanticipated benefit: Internet connections for $5 or $10 a month, says Mike Gravely, research manager of energy systems at the California Energy Commission.

Finland already considers the internet a basic human right that should be extended to everyone free of charge. I think that in principle it is a great idea and that we should all move away from monetary systems at every opportunity. But not sure how I feel considering the fact that there are still millions of people without food, shelter and energy (to run the internet per se).
Electric cars seem to be creating the problem that they have been designed to overcome (reducing carbon emissions). Can we not focus on changing our energy sources and then turn to transportation.
Personally I would like to see us adopt the magnetic levitation trains currently operating in Japan. Capable of travelling at 10 times the speed of a carrier jet, without the contamination.
