How about dedicated parking spaces, battery cartridges
I too would certainly use any available plug-in device, however, ideally I would want one to be available within a street or two of my home. Walking more than 3min would quickly become a deterrent. If local councils could be
encouraged to supply plug-in devices within 3-5min walk of every residential area, or better yet, allow fixed parking spaces for EV users infront or near their homes, than it would make it much easier for EV users, to plug the devices into their own home electrical mains. There are many residential areas, where some sort of plug-in device that leads from a private residence to the curb would be usable. One thing I can't understand, is why the batteries themselves can't be inserted and removed in a quick and easy fashion, say at petrol stations. This would ensure that the oil companies maintain their revenue and relevance, through the leasing and re-charging of batteries, which could refocus them from selling fossil fuel energy, and give them a sustainable future (not that their survival bothers me in any way).
