Yep, nothing wrong there, but once it goes over this happens to your solar panels:



Which means during the peak solar window, your solar panels do absolutely nothing, because grid voltage is too high and the inverter cuts their output.

So I'd say having a bunch of people charging EVs in these areas which have peoples solar turning itself off all the time probably isn't going to strain the grid as supply is exceeding demand significantly on a suburb level.
