I already completed formatting that newswire for posting and have it
queued for later as EVSE newswires do not get too many read hits.
It is queued to be posted because it is a point on the EV historical
timeline. Each day brings new changes ... So even if a newswire I post
does not get too many reads today, it will be useful info in the future.
I plan to post it along with a Utility complaining that
wireless/inductive charging is less efficient. Some of the complaints
from the Utilities have been odd (they say one thing, but really have an
unspoken motivating agenda). Perhaps the large amount of power demanded
by a bus is once again making Utilities put in more infrastructure that
they would rather someone else pays for.
...
Be careful Martin, I spent a huge amount of time porting EVSE locations
to recargo, just to have them delete them (huh?!? ... all that work
gone). Their management has a different way of thinking, which still
does not explain why when both recargo and plugshare are owned by the
same person, their databases are not synchronized. Duplicity, and
fraught with errors of old sites that I could not get them to remove: I
gave up on trying to make them better. I still use plugshare to look up
items.
I hope all your efforts with openchargemap.org remains productive even
into the future, and are not lost like all mine were with recargo.
