        I don’t need to. Is there a way to charge EVs there? Then EVs will likely be charged there. Is there not a way to charge EVs there? Then EVs probably won’t be charged there.

          What I see are cables is coming out of a lamppost. I’m all for electric cars but I can’t see a reasonably safe solution to all the cars on the street being connected.

        They can. Make it mandatory on any new construction and require it as a part of remodels while offering solar incentives for their covevered parking lots.

        Governments exist to help with stuff like this.

        I own my house (okay, the bank does) and just bought an EV.

        I feel like people are sleeping on 120v. Maybe I just drive less than the average person but I only use about 10-15% of the battery in a day going to/from work and I fully recover by about 0200 every day.

        I’ve been testing with 120v expecting to have to spend money on a charger at some point but now I don’t know if I’ll bother.
