Very well stated!
It occurs to me that, at some point, we will begin to see more typical convenience store/gas station combinations start to install charging stations on the perimeter of their property. Having a captive audience for 30-60 minutes while they’re charging their vehicle should help in-store food/beverage sales considerably. And, these places are already well-situated in prime transportation corridors…
I suspect we might have already seen some of that if it weren’t for the federal infrastructure incentive package in the works… no one wants to pay the full ride on a charging point installation, only to find out if they had waited a few months or a little longer, the federal government would be picking up the tab and paying the lion’s share for charge point installations.
