Scientists caution against charging electric vehicles at home overnight

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Well I got distracted by work and such so now everyone has already said this, but fuck it, here's my version.
So schedule the charging to start at off-peak hours, such as 9PM.
This presumes your local grid makes use of solar. This is not a significant source of power in my area.
First, where I live they already charge more during peak hours than non-peak hours, which incentivizes charging at home after peak hours.
Where I charge at work, the charging is free, but you are not guaranteed a spot. So charging at work would mean anxiety about getting to charge at all. Also, not everywhere has free charging.
There is an existing, simple solution to the problem and it is not to discourage charging at home.
