The Solar Plug-In Stations will be used daily by the City of Chicago Department of Fleet Management to power the city’s electric cars.
…Ben nice job on resorting to name calling
I will agree with you that it would be handy to be able to recharge when you are out and about in your volt. Lets talk about other pure EVs though. Now you have a 100 mile range. That seems to be the minimum most companies are shooting for. Now the need to recharge when you are out is even less. How often do most Americans drive more than more than 75 miles a day? Cell phones have all day batteries. People use them all day then plug them in when they get home. The same will be true for the cars they are driving.
If you are worried about using purely green energy lets concentrate on doing it at the power plant level. One large solar grid will be much easier and cost effective to maintain than hundreds of little solar charging stations. If you want to plug in while your out (and I don’t see it being very useful for most people) then companies could stick an outlet on the light pole in the parking lot….
