    There’s stuff like heaters and to a degree things like washing machines that can shape the time they’re active to whenever there’s a lull.

    Consider Britain: Each time the BBC runs a popular show you get an energy usage spike once it’s over because people are getting up and make themselves a cuppa. Doesn’t really make sense to run the heater in the tank for your shower at the same time, or charge your car, that can wait a bit.
