The article seemed to miss the point. EV owners use much more electricity at night. The rest is a series of comparisons and factoids that don't really add up to much info for me.

It's not even EV owners, the study was performed on consumers that had opted in to a low rate night time car charging electricity plan.
Headline: Consumers use plan they signed up for to expected effect

I thought it was:
"Rich people who can buy expensive cars are also likely to have swimming pools and use more electricity, unless they have solar panels on their big houses."
In 20 years, the same section of the press will be running with:
"Rich people are less greedy than poor people because they have more room on their expansive homes for solar panels. Now here's some photos of their kitchen."
