To clarify I meant large scale adoption of it. Most EVs aren't capable, the only one I know is the Leaf and UK trials are just starting iirc.V2G is starting. I know of a few people who have had their chargers converted.
Interesting. I would assume a facility which such a high output and therefore impact on the network would be designed with redundancy in all areas.That depends on the fault.
A fire in the electrical switchyard or similar could result in the circuit breakers openly instantenously with little warning.
Or an emergency scram.
Or if there is a fault that needs a shutdown the operators might have a few minutes to phone the grid operator and tell them they are about to trip before it happens.
A couple of minutes warning could be vital to prepare for a large loss in generation capabilities.
