Since they are already in place, why is CA telling people NOT to charge their EVs when they get home in the evening, so they won't have brown/black outs?

They are expirementing now by mixing cement and carbon black (materials that have been around for thousands of years) and incorporating it into a roadway. The mixture can hold and transfer electricity. Vehicles could be charged while moving.

They are experimenting with a lot of things. Some will pan out, some will not.

But let's not put the cart before the horse (which is what many are currently promoting...)
