Its not "taxed" as yet for car use is it?..


Dunno. Don't see how it can be taxed at home over and above existing
electricity use, at least until smart meters become universal.


Not taxed, but the screw is starting to be turned on pricing ...

TfL funds LEVC taxis and charging points, but at Heathrow they're so
expensive per kWh, that the cabbies fill up on petrol and re-charge via
the range-extender

Ionity chargers (owned by Ford/BMW/VW/Merc) recently raised their "rack
rate" for motorway fast-charging to 66p/kWh
