Germany Will Force 80% of Gas Stations to Install EV Charging, Too
(www.thedrive.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
You mean by making petrol stations have EV charging points?
Imagine thinking people are going to wait 30 minutes to charge for work. Putting charge stations at gas stations is stupid and will never work. They already get long lines during busy periods when if takes 3 minutes to fill.
Where you still wait 30 minutes and pay much more than those charging at home.
So: no. That is not what I mean. That is a pretty much useless imo, there are so many charging stations everywhere and they are mostly empty whenever I see one anyways (maybe, just maybe, because depending on a EV is so difficult for almost everyone living in flat?).
I live in the city and am lucky to almost never need a car. Many of my neighbours need a car though for various reasons. There is not a single EV car in the whole neighborhood of several thousand people. And guess the reason: it is impossible to switch to one. And this law proposed here will do zero to change that.
You see a shitload of EV cars in the suburbs though.
