In Chicago area for anyone wondering using the Walmart charging network. This is about ~13% capacity, wasn’t really low started charging at about 70%.

    I wonder if this applies to something like an off grid solar car charging setup.

    I know the panel and weather requirements are hard to work around, maybe once salt or solid state batteries bring storage costs down we could have modular containers that could be dropped all through the desert or at gas stations and parking lots.

      Off-grid part surely bumps the question into fruit stand territory (not a lawyer)

      But decentralized energy storage is a foregone conclusion once you accept that the most abundant source of energy isn’t diurnal
