Pole transformer sizing (or, can you really feed 7 houses with 25 kva?)

I do recall reading (unfortunately don't recall where now) that Tesla was floating a scheme for free home charging. Tesla would manage car charging and the utilities would dictate the load they wanted the cars to absorb (and the times) to soak up excess nighttime electricity. In return for managing the load, customers would get free electricity. I can imagine that if Tesla had enough cars available to pull electricity on demand, this could help the utilities manage the grid. Right now, there probably aren't enough cars to make a difference but in a few years there could be enough cars in certain areas to soak up significant overcapacity.

I had proposed this several times at TMC Connect in talks, but so far nothing has come of it unfortunately.
