Tesla already has fast chargers with megapack, and with solar. There are fast chargers that don’t impact the grid much
we definitely need to build out destination chargers. Charging at work is no different from at home, except for when. And build out of solar can make peak energy available just when needed
there are proposed answers such as streetlight chargers
Obviously we don’t have an answer yet, haven’t built out the infrastructure, but we do have options
Imagine places like Kansas city or Chicago or LA.
I’m imagining park and ride stations with fairly slow charging. People in the suburbs can leave their car on a slow charger all day and take a train into the city.
My home charger is 50a which is too fast for this.
My work has 30a chargers and most people take turns for half a day
so we’re talking 15-20a, or again, something smart enough to spread the load
Fast chargers aren’t the only option
