EU passes law to blanket highways with fast EV chargers by 2025::The chargers must be placed every 60km (37mi) and allow ad-hoc payment by card or contactless device without subscriptions.

    This is great, and ambitious.

    I wish it was more ambitious with a fatter timeline.

    I’d rather see passive charging lanes added by 2030 or something.

    But again, this is great.

      Charging lanes are still a pipe dream as long as inductive charging wastes about 1/3 of energy used.

        Swhat I’m saying! Like, adding this many charging stations is both necessary and wasteful. We need a better solution in general.

      I think it would be much cheaper if there was a universal standard for car batteries that could then be replaced for charged ones at charging stations
