Charging an EV from rooftop solar — does it work?

DRAFT — outline only. Do not publish until the figures below are verified. Keep this guide inactive until it is written.

Angle: Combine two of your categories: solar + EV.

This guide must answer: - Can rooftop solar realistically charge an EV? - What extra system size does an EV add? - Does net metering make daytime/nighttime charging work? - Is the combined economics attractive?

Writing rules: answer the question in the first two sentences, put a real number in the opening paragraph, name the specific city or DISCOM where the answer varies, and link to two related guides and the relevant category page.

Verify before publishing: Sizing maths; keep consistent with solar sizing guides.
