That future isn't here. At my current job, people are encouraged to go out and move their cars when charged, and still they can't be confident there will be a charger available every day. My previous job had none.
If I could drive down the street and replace my electrolyte, neither changing jobs nor moving would suddenly make an electric vehicle unusable.
- greglindahl 9y agoYour current job problem is an interface problem. If you could arrive at work and plug in, with a guarantee that you'd get X charge by the end of the workday, that'd give you the confidence that you're lacking with most of today's charging systems. It's not hard to imagine how to do that: a smart system with reservations is not rocket science. Even better: if you have a big battery and don't need to charge every day, your car can help smooth variations in wind and solar power. If you want to protect yourself against both a job change and a home change, well, sure, a new job and a new apartment might not offer charging.
