JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — You can help ensure Jacksonville's electric grid is able to power the city into the future.
JEA is expecting the number of battery-only electric vehicles to increase by almost 500 percent by the end of this decade. What will that do to the city's electric grid? That's what JEA will study and prepare for now. "Eventually in the future, if the growth projections are right, we're going to get cluster charging," Reynolds said."We're going to get two or three homes on a single transformer with maybe multiple EVs all trying to charge at the same time. That would overload the current residential transformers and that current infrastructure."
