Rather than creaming in my pants, I did the math. In that picture there are 100 panels, each capable of providing about 200 Watts. Average power production for fixed panels in an area with good sunlight is the equivalent of 5 hours of good pointing...so 100 kwh per day.

Assuming each car wants 50 kwh, and allowing for losses (10 kwh more), the station in the picture will need 3 days to charge the batteries in the those 4 cars. So I guess if those people are planning a long weekend, they can leave their cars sitting there, providing the weather is decent and it’s not winter (shorter days). Needless to say, the station cannot charge any other cars during that time, without extending past the three days.

Face it, it’s Agenda 21, but I guess they’re getting better at selling it.

I always waited two years before buying the next upgrade for windows. I’ll likely wait another 10 years before I buy an electric car if current trends keep up. But the point whole point here is now is about the trend.
