Duh! For grid capacity and stability reasons, if you charge from the grid instead of from your own home solar, in any Time-Of-Use utility area,...
That looks about right, though I have no actual towing experience to give a complete answer. When towed above 40-something mph with engine off,...

That chart tells you the current 'state of the art' efficiencies of all the PV chemistries currently in use or development. From it, you can...

My DIY electrical work is also to code. The service panel is in the garage, luckily this PHEV naturally parks with its charging receptacle next...
