It's not for any of the above. Grid systems will have many batteries and not need excessively fast charge/discharge rates. Evs still can't really use them because they're simply too heavy for the energy density. Longer range evs already need beef8er suspensions and chew through tires from the weight. Going even heavier with even larger batteries isn't very feasible compared to the alternatives.
