Comment on Shortage of EV charging points make Sunak's green goals impossible, say businesses
echodot@feddit.uk 1 year agoThe problem is that the closest one to me is in a motorway service station. So what am I supposed to do charge up and then just sort of wander around in WHSmith for an hour while it charges up?

My understanding – and this was material I’ve read over the years about US gas stations, though I imagine that the same might be true for the UK – is that gas stations barely break even on selling gas, and they make their money selling stuff in the attached convenience store. The gas just draws customers.

So if you’re a restaurant off the highway or something, having charging stations might be a way to ensure customers.
