Many US states are even dipping their toes into the Virtual Power Plant by subsidizing power walls in homes with the agreement to be able to reach into those batteries when needed. Tesla seems to be on the cutting edge of this.
A good electrical storage option, large scale is needed. We aren’t there yet for realistic storage. But imaging a huge California neighborhood in the not too distant future that’s got 80% of the homes stocked w/ a power wall type tech…. And then some greenhadi sets fire to the neighborhood because one of Gavin Newsome’s acolytes decides they want that neighborhood for the Project 2030 scam for a planned low income city…. Wowza. Think about the electrical tinder that would blow that area sky high, not to mention the chemical fallout. That’s going to be a mess.
