Where will new charging stations go?
Will there be an influx of new 'parking/charging lots' across our country to support all the EV's that our government wants us to buy?
Should we start clearing land for parking lots? Can we find a way to make things into more of a concrete jungle in our cities/towns and country sides??
How about converting cemeteries/graveyards-which are already a waste of space-into paved charging lots?? Just relocate the head stones to
the families and call it a day!
Or maybe building new parking decks exclusively for charging? Could be a great source to invest in for the vultures!
Comments welcome

Hyundai just unveiled a bonkers new hydrogen fuel cell BEV hybrid concept. You can charge it like a BEV, or fill it up with Hydrogen and the onboard fuel cell will charge the battery. There will be plenty of ideas coming before the last word is spoken. Pure BEVs are likely not for the long term.

My understanding of using hydrogen is that the electrolysis process to break water into the hydrogen component is extremely expensive.

BTW if you wonder how difficult hydrogen is to handle all you have to see is the trouble NASA is having with hydogen leaks the last few weeks. The smallest element is squirrelly.

Love the first edition Honda Accord behind Michael J in this pic! Truly the best car of the era (manual trans). The automatic however was horrible (they fixed it later).

One of my HS friends had one! Got to ride in it a lot! The honda stickshifts of that era (and still) were like a swiss watch. Smooth, fast perfectly calibrated, and of light action. They made porsche's of the era seem crude. Porsches clutches of the era were so stiff that after a few weeks of use your left leg was twice as strong as your right one

Green hydrogen is made from using wind turbines/windmills. No natural gas involved. Ignore the people who think it's ONLY made from natural gas

Go look at where Tesla Superchargers are located. I wrote Superchargers NOT destination charging. Copy what Tesla did. I've owned two Tesla S Models and have used them for travel.

Hopefully, possibly as early as December, the Tesla Superchargers and others will open up for useage by all EV's. You will, of course, need a Teslatap and an account, because you can bet that it will not be free.
