> Every time I think about EVs, I become filled with dread thinking about what will happen if an area loses power for an extended period of time
A mid-size EV battery can easily store 60kWh of energy. That's enough to power a domestic refrigerator for ~12 days (assuming 200w average power usage, which is on the higher end).
I lost power for about a day last year and was very happy to be able to keep my fridge and some emergency lighting powered from an EV battery.
