$975.000.000 wasted and *very* likely still more to come since it *costs* money to physically *remove* installed #chargers, all of it just because Elron's orange fossil daddy still hates EVs and - worse yet - they will sell their Government EVs.
Congratulations, Elron! The tec “mastermind“ who fucked himself hard just because he desperately wanted to fuck all of us!

“180-Mile EVs Are 'The Future' Says Lucid CEO, And He's Right”
"Fast charging means range anxiety is mostly in your head.”
It's a virtuous circle — smaller battery -> lighter car -> more miles per kWh

"Trump is trying to halt the EV charger buildout. Experts say it’s not that easy"
Even if he did it. The only people it would benefit would be SpaceKaren who's Tesla Super Charging Network is receiving funds, but would also benefit from fewer competitors also receiving funds.

@pandora_parrot the fact that #ChargingInfrastructure is at best as #inconvenient as the unattended LPG refueling station in my hometown if not worse is the reason why no #CarRental I know has #BEVs unless you explicitly look for those because all you need to refuel a #CombistionEngine powered car is a hand to open the fill port, pump gas and pay the moey owed to the cashier...
Is there an Airbnb equivalent for non-Tesla electric vehicles?
Use case: I’m driving an EV cross-country. I need to recharge. I open an app that shows me nearby residences or businesses who will let me hook my car to their charger for five or ten bucks or whatever.
Note, I am *not* asking whether Airbnb has listings that include charging. They do.
I’m talking about somebody who’d want to locate non-Tesla charging while traveling far from home.
Just curious.
The anti-#cyclist tropes against protected #bikeLanes erase the moms on #cargoBikes and a strong majority of city voters who would enjoy the simple #urban #mobility of #eBikes and a connected network of low-stress bike infrastructure that gave people an easy option to get out of their cars for short trips and go one-car/#carLite /#CarFree, reduce #transportation's 40% of #carbonEmissions without the expense and #ChargingInfrastructure woes of #CarsRuinCities #EVs

European Parliament, Council and Commission have reached agreement on the #AFIR:
1,3 kW ️/ #EV
every 60 km main roads by 2026, 400 kW / station (600 kW by 2028)
every 60-120 km on half of main roads by 2028, 1,4 - 2,8 MW
Transparent pricing & easy payment
Technical standard requirements will make the integration of EV #ChargingInfrastructure in the grid - #SmartCharging - and within other systems easier and create a uniform European market
New infographic by the International Energy Agency on #EV, including grid impacts and the potential for load shifting and #SmartCharging.
Also to be published today are guidelines for #GridIntegration of electric vehicles and #ChargingInfrastructure with examples from across the globe (I acted as reviewer)
