Think of how many gas pumps there are at Buc-ee’s and change them to charging stations. How thick a power line will you need to run to the facility to handle all the stations?

I remember reading about mini atomic reactors that could be built for local use. If a Buc-ees had one of them at each store with, say, 40 charging ports, and the charging could be done in a few minutes with 600 or more miles per charge, that might make sense from a CO2 perspective. Until then, I'll keep my gas(oline)

We are a long way from mini nuclear reactors. One probably unsolvable problem is security.
