I had to look up what plugshare was. I thought it was like an airbnb where people can leave their car at someone's house to charge it up over night.
That is actually a cool idea. Although, I am not sure I would want total strangers showing up at My house. I imagine a few folks might like to make a buck or two that way? Maybe someone will come up with a new kind a Electron share & save. I should probably patent that quick.
well since people let strangers stay in their homes at airbnbs I figure just letting someone charge at home wouldn't be that big a deal (you could drive them to a hotel and pick them up in the morning for an extra fee). I got to think tow trucks will have generators on their trucks to give quick charges to people that will run out.
True, I am wondering about chargers that companies build for their employees to use during the week. Are those included on plugshare? I know in this area of NorCal, there are companies that have electric chargers for their employees.
Yes, sometimes they're listed. For example in this area, there are listings for Intel, Boeing, and Salt River Project employee locations. But they're mostly "Restricted," meaning that only people affiliated with the business get access.
Any one know what is done there as far as battery assembly? Pack?
Hydrogen generates that whole transportation infrastructure again and trucking energy is again set up, producing more vehicles on the roads. Hope ground vehicles energy can be transported via an electrical grid (for most) as it is more efficient and costs less to tax payers. Getting our transports to step to hydrogen would be a start but hope not final. Hydrogen rockets on planes?Here's a newsworthy example.
If this hydrogen filling station ever comes online, Nikola might be able to demonstrate their trucks propelling themselves along flat roads and not just downhill gravity rides.
The problem with batteries for heavy-duty use (like semi tractor trailers) is their immense weight. Roads/bridges have gross vehicle weight limits, so adding thousands of pounds of batteries to pull that much weight reduces the load the trailer can carry.
interesting that the ford employee is not waiting for ford's own charging station
This exists, but I don't remember the website name.
