I am interested if we can ultimately end up with a hybrid grid. There will always be a centralized grid, but I think solar can get to a point where it can be distributed and feed power back to the grid as well.
That's actually exactly how all grid-tied solar currently functions.
Ok but I mean at scale. I admit I don't know a lot about it but the idea of the grid being blanketed across the roofs of an entire city is kind of cool.
Yeah, that's how the majority of residential & commercial solar works. If the power generated on your roof isn't used by you, then it will go to the next closest load. It actually reduces the load on the grid... when it's working.
Someone gets it. This is not a concept for a new vehicle. This is a concept for a conversion kit for existing Wranglers. I struggled with it buying my 2020 wishing I could have held out a bit longer for a 4xE (really didn't want to be a first year adopter). The reality is things are going to change a lot over the next 5-10 years as electric becomes the norm. Offering a "reasonable" solution to convert existing Wranglers to electric makes sense and is a new potential revenue stream. You'll start seeing more and more of these kinds of things for all sorts of existing gas cars.
I wonder how many batteries I could fit in my old Wagoneer?
You might find a good pic of it in here, but I believe anything you see from Jeep themselves are all concepts. So you'll probably have to do all your own mods.
Best I can find is to buy a kit and hack away. Granted at Jeep they probably ruined a few before getting it right. Here's a sight that sells some similar, but for JK.i also love the LED lights across the grill...
