Domestically its a twelve hour charge overnight on cheap rate. Easy
enough for those with garages and well within domestic supply limits.

For regulated car parking, again easy enough to add socket-in-pole
charging meters.
Wring bit of the infrastructure. The problem is having enough power
delivered to the "socket in pole" and domestic equivalent.
Its no worse than a small factory 3 phase supply.

Listen.... the poles and sockets aren't the problem. Getting power to
the poles *is*. Think a 300 space car park: ho much wiring and how many
amps is that?
