Wouldn't it be nice if charging points would accept cash? There'd be no
need for them to phone home for ID card verification or for credit card
approval. Just shovel in some cash and charge, like parking at a parking
meter.
And have the machines broken off their stands and stolen - just like
happens to store ATM machines.
Wouldn't it depend on how much they charge per hour, or per KWH? Nobody
steals parking meters. There isn't enough money in them to make it
worthwhile.
At $0.10/KWH, a 10 KW charging station is only costing $1/hour for
electricity. An EV that uses 300 WH/mile gets 33 miles of charge for
each hour parked.
