If net meetering is used the power needed to offset what the car draws can be fed to the grid during the day (which is also when it's most needed as demand peaks about the same time as photovoltaic output peaks) and then drawn back from the grid at night. The effect on carbon emmissions and utility bills is about the same without the need to install and maintain batteries,or the associated losses. The same approach could also be used for wind power.
