Original Note:
This tweet claims that electric vehicles are being mandated as backup batteries to support wind power. The UK government’s ZEV mandate consultation does not require bidirectional charging, which would be needed to be a backup for wind power, so countering this claim. https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/1154610/zev-mandate-co2-emissions-regulation-consultation-document.pdf
