I don't know that I'd say anything quite as final as "not at public chargers," but for sure there's much more home charging than public charging. There are certainly people who live in apartments and townhouses in big US cities and have to park on the street. This is also somewhat true in Europe, but some lucky few there have alleyways behind their houses where they can park and charge from a weatherproof EVSE on the outside wall of the house. For those who need it, public charging websites and apps help find the most affordable (even free) public charging. As charging options grow, competition is apt to drive down the overall cost. Meanwhile, I think that the gasoline prices in that article are a bit out of date. It's also not calculating the higher maintenance and repair costs for an ICEV, nor is it allowing for the differing externalized public costs. But that's what these articles do. They choose their data so as to arrive at the desired or required conclusion. David Roden, EVDL moderator & general lackey To reach me, don't reply to this message; I won't get it.
