Why would it make a difference with electric...or hydrogen. Are you talking fueling or parking.
I assumed the fueling would be an over night affair. Especially in the winter to keep the heat on while sleeping.
Never thought of that. I always assumed it would be a DC fast charging affair at a depot. More along the lines of an hour or two with a 500 KW or more 800 volt system. Who knows. But your idea may work. A couple of 19.2 KW 240 AC umbilicals overnight. That would deliver around 500 Kw overnight. Tesla used to put 19.2 KW chargers in their model S’s. An 80 amp EVSE (supplying the 19.2 KW) would run about 1000 bucks each. Maybe suspended from above? They are pretty small.
Interesting.
Keeping the heat on overnight wouldn’t use more than about 8 or 10 KW.
