Back in the '60s I lived on a farm. We had 3 pickups and 2 cars. After I got my DL, my car might get 200 miles a weekend. The other car, went to town most Saturdays, might get 100 miles a month. (Bought brand new, made a round trip to west coast) The pickups were driven most often but a 120 mile round trip was rare. (Now, the people that farm in that area do most of the work we did with pickups replaced with ATVs. If there where batteries that could be charged by solar panels, that the vehicle could be hooked to at night. No extra power down the wire. Sure cost of setup would be high, but for many commuters a car that could run say 100 miles on the onboard battery, and another couple hundred miles capacity in the garage, that could be replaced for near free might sell.
Do the fast charging stations pull power as demanded for charge as needed, or do they charge a battery bank to a higher voltage than the cars use, then equalize thru large cables?
