So, every parking space is going to have a charger? Because those times that I’ve been to one of these big gas stations, I don’t leave my car blocking the pump while I wander around inside looking for the restroom.

I mean yeah, that is kinda the ideal.

I mean we kinda have electricity everywhere anyway. Unless you out in the sticks or desert there are already high voltage power lines.

Exactly. If you charge (even just L2) in at least one destination in your commute (work, home), you’ll be net positive on charge. Then you only need rapid charging for long distance trips, which for the vast majority of people don’t happen very often.

Even in the boonies you have ways to get high voltage power. Renewables and a battery bank, or even a genny is a better option than an ICE.
