That's where I think things like Tesla's Powerwall becomes so handy. Imagine 95 kWh just sitting there on your wall. Or in your Model-S. When there's an adverse power event, use your battery. Or, sell it back to the grid if there's money to be made.

Having a massive virtual peaker plant (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peaking_power_plant) is a neat idea. Telsa, another new business idea for you!

What sucks is powerwall cost $7.5k for 6.5 kWh of storage. A decent sized house is going to need 2-4 to handle a reasonable outage, and if you want to be able to power an AC.

My Model Y has a 75 kWh of battery just sitting in my garage, and S/X owners have 100 kWh (maybe 90 after refresh?). Really wish Teslas could use a vehicle to grid to somehow tie into a homebase powerwall for this kind of situation. My understanding is there is no inbuilt way to get more than what is needed to charge the 12V out of a Tesla...
