Title: SF Bay Area public fast charging stations
Post by: Richard230 on May 09, 2022, 07:25:53 PM
I just heard a report on KCBS, the San Francisco news radio station. An inspection of 181 public fast charging stations around the San Francisco Bay Area was performed recently by a group of researchers and they found that 25% of them were broken in one way or another and were non-functional. Another 5% had charging cables that were too short to reach some electric vehicle charging ports. The reporter said that those maintenance and design problems were going to need to be solved if California wanted to eventually replace most ICE cars with electric-powered ones in the future.

Tesla charging stations were not surveyed in this study.
