Electrician here, wanting to do more EV chargers including residential and commercial and other endeavors but I do not have an EV so I cannot see where needs more, what the problems are and annoyances with having one.
Are there any specific places you wish there were chargers?
I’ve heard of start ups where people will come to your vehicle and charge it, thoughts? (Valued at 110m now)
Business owners? Would a EV in front of your store help?
Agreed about all condo/apartment solution answers! I don’t have a garage 🤪 my ev is collecting snow and salt and I have to go to a nearby mall to charge (albeit fo FREE!)
I would love to pay $1-1.5 at home for 10kW instead of at the cheap chargers around me for $3-5 / 10kW
Nothing. It’s been incredible.
You want to have a home charger and one at the cottage if you have a place you drive to weekends.
We stop less than 1/20th the amount as before.
I personally have no complaints since I am a homeowner good with DIY.
The biggest problem is the lack of charging at rental properties and condos. More needs to be done to get chargers installed there.
Orange has done something that helps.
https://www.orangecharger.com/But much more needs to be done. There needs to be better time sharing of power.
I love the idea of going to a Walmart, grocery store, or restaurant and plugging in while I give them my business.
Frustrations, not enough chargers. Bigger frustration, sometimes the cost of charging is way too high, sometimes ridiculously high. Cheaper to charge at home.
