I mean, the infrastructure certainly isn't completed and I'm not sure where you're located. But the US is planning to build 50k a year alongside grid improvements.

Here is a good summary if you're interested: https://usafacts.org/articles/how-many-electric-vehicle-charging-stations-are-there-in-the-us/

In my city you wouldn't need to own a home charging station at this point. There are several 350kw stations within 10 miles which provide 0-80% in 15-20 minutes. Lower power ones are at most major shopping centers and those take about an hour.

It's only cheaper because one is more expensive?? Thanks for the tip. Even if it is transient you're going to be better off on long term averages than demand spikes constantly.

If you live in the United States Texas's inability to plan for a freeze ended up costing everyone. Your rate increases are still paying for that debacle.

Solar gives you certainty that some dumb asshole politician in Texas doesn't end up costing you thousands of extra dollars because they don't want to plan for extreme weather.
