Dealing with uppity university students, I'd presume.

Going by Wikipedia's figures, 75kWh of nickel-iron batteries would be weigh about 1500kg and take up about 2.5 cubic metres of space, which is about the size and weight of two fully-loaded refrigerators. And they'd handle 150kW peak load.

Same thing can happen with paper ballot counting machines, it's all just centralized in the elections office.
Which is why you don't bother with machines, period.
Up here, it's paper ballots, marked with pens, counted using Mk1 eyeballs at the polling station in full view of witnesses from any candidates that wish to send one. The only machines involved in anything are the printers used to make the ballots and the telephones used to call in the stations' results to the Returning Officer.
NO ONE counts paper ballots by hand.

There is no link between autonomously driving cars and car sharing.
Sure there is. With existing car sharing systems or rentals, you either need to go to where the car is via some other means, or someone needs to drive it to you, then drive back to the office, before you can go where you're wanting to go.
With autonomously driving cars, the car can drive itself to you and then you go directly from where you are to where you want to go. It makes it far more practical.
One could always go the old school route and move the backup offsite yourself. e.g. an external drive in a safe deposit box.

The vars. municipalities telling them to "piss off, we'll do it ourselves."
You mean the various municipalities being told by state governments "Oh, no you won't."?
Competition? What competition?
No need to be that complicated. Just use an absorption chiller.
