    The IRA does have provisions for home electrical upgrades to accommodate electrification projects. You don’t really need a fancy fast charger at home though since you can just slow charge overnight. Better for the battery that way.

    As far as apartments go, I don’t think landlords need any government handouts… Maybe there should be legislation to require X many chargers by X date for apartment complexes over X number of residents.

      Well yes. I never said the IRA did, just what would be best.

      No for home most people would need a level 2 charger or a second car. Which coast money to install, and is confusing for most people since level 2 charger is basically a foreign language to the.

      For apartments. Yes most landlords could afford to install them but with a government offering to cover part of the cost or giving tax breaks it makes them more likely to say yes
