My city has no lamp posts since sidewalks are too narrow. Lights are hung from overhead cabels between buildings.
>- at work (need parking anyway)
I don't drive my car to work anymore (thank god) but good luck forcing employers to spend money on installing enough charging stations for everyone. Some employers don't even have enough parking spaces for all employees so it's a game of music chairs already.
>- charge station with fast charge (not that different than gas stations, but slower)
Fast chargers are not ubiquitous yet, nor are EVs with it, especially affordable ones. And even EV fast charging is still much slower than filling a tank of gas in a cheap car.
My point is there are solutions, as the number of EV grow so will the solutions.
It’s way easier and safer to charge an EV than to fill a gas car (electricity is everywhere), so you can expect the solutions to come progressively (with some bumps along the way of course)
It’s a good thing, EV will become a big part of the battery we need for a renewable grid, absorbing the excess electricity in period of overproduction.
