Yes the irony isn't lost on me although there's a fair bit of solar and wind generation capacity that could be brought to bear reasonably quickly if gentailers thought the demand growth merited the capex. How the grid itself would handle the extra demand, that's another good question. A transformer blew up in our quiet suburban street the other day. Blew up like a bomb blast, thought we were living in Bagdad there for a minute lol. Wonder if some of my wealthy neighbors have already bought EV's and already stressing the system ?
