What are you talking about, a way to make more money?

Are you unfamiliar with the concept of peak load?

The comment above was suggesting charging more money for charging your vehicle during peak load. Often times people have schedules and have places to be a certain times. Often people can’t chose what time they charge so rather than reduce load during peak times, they just make more money
