Most in london can't even park outside their own home. so were will

As an example my brother visit me in his car on a sunday used to
come saturday too in the last 14 months h';es only been able to
park outside my home ONCE and even then it's in the street I;n need
to find a way of getting the charging cable to the car he usually
has to park on the other soide of the road the last two weekend he
had difficulty finding a space in the same road.
Not all places of work have parking spaces for everyone usually
just executives.


Pavement charging point.

were can buy a 2 mile extention lead ;-)


There are only 90,000 electric cars at the moment. You can't expect a
charging point outside every house.


but when they are 10 million?


There'll be lots of charging points. That's a pre-requisite for 10m people
to buy the cars. Obviously, people won't buy them unless they can charge
them.


except the point is that TPTB aren't considering this a problem

there is nothing in planning regulations to make sure all new properties
electric car "friendly" and the current trend for as many houses as possible
per acre contrives to make them less electric car friendly without even
trying.
