Not only that, as EVS get more popular those stations will get more saturated. Even with more stations that means longer waits. Imagine a line for gas where it takes 5 total minutes to fill, if that. Now imagine that line with 20+ minute EV charging, per vehicle.
Im not against EVS but there are drawbacks. Acting like there aren't isn't doing Anyone any good.
Quite frankly I wish they'd just spend money on public transit.
One thing to keep in mind is that you don't need the infrastructure of a gas station to have an EV charging station. My wife borrowed my car the other day and topped up at an apartment block. Only one place I went to could be charitably called a gas station, the rest were car dealerships and malls. But I'm also fortunate enough to be able to use an L1 charger at home and work so I tend not to use any.
