My Chevy Volt takes 12 KWh to charge fully so about 24KWh a day week days. That is about 80 EV miles a day.
On the weekend usually only charge once a day. A months worth of charging is about 300 KWh. This is 1,000 EV miles a month.

When you look a ROI we save more money on gas than we do on power savings alone.
But we save not heating with natural gas. We save not buying gasoline for our car and we save not buying power.

My wife will keep the living room 76-78 degrees so in the winter we will use some lots KWh heating even with mini splits.
But it is no big deal we have the power to cover it.
