Public chargers have two huge advantages:
The result of building them will be to shift some amount of transport away from burning fossil fuels.
by public, you mean like a gas station? a private business that serves the public
or do you mean public like the interstate system is public? a public service funded by taxes
More like gas stations and toll roads. They’re not providing free-as-in-beer electricity
These are both edge cases and shouldn’t be the focus of policy. Straight up. Its a complete mistake to prioritize these as investments.
We have a grid, the VAST majority of electric car owners have access to outlets, we should be focusing on grid level storage, not charging networks.
A third of Americans rent their home, that’s not an edge case.
Renting a home means you have access to a wall socket.
Yes, those are edge cases.
You’re out of touch, not just with where we are, but where we need to be.
Adding to charging networks is a waste of resources. We need battery storage at grid level. It’s more important and a higher priority.
