> exactly the same

Of course except it's only the same if they're closely connected.

Here in Norway, while energy regions are connected throughout the country, the cables are quite limited between certain areas. So generation here might not help for usage there.

So being able to control usage, or having extra batteries connected near the loads, can be even more useful than extra generator capacity far away.

Aye but y'all are way ahead! I get to hack on software that bids into DSO-level circuits for NODES up in Norway.

I imagine Norway is seeing a lot of the issues - and opportunities - that having high EV penetration brings, so a good place to watch for what works and what doesn't.
