Clean Tech News & Views: EVs, Solar Energy, Batteries

A week or so ago, I came across a social media post from Electrify America that left me a little confused. The stations seemed laid out well. There’s good room, well-marked spaces, and even a lot of space to pull through with a small trailer! But, the company put in some bollards with “EV Only” signs front and center, blocking anyone from driving through.

Obviously this is an ongoing process. Gas stations continue to evolve to suit changing conditions, and people will continue to come up with better ideas. So, I’m not saying that there’s absolutely no room for experimentation or innovation. But, what I am saying is that we would be fools to assume that there’s no value in what has been learned fueling vehicles for all of those decades in a dog-eat-dog industry.

These three things are well-suited to a gas station. Cars drive in. Cars drive out. Cars have a person inside who likes shade and being kept dry from the rain. Having a battery pack instead of a gas tank changes none of these fundamental driver needs. So, it makes sense to follow the same proven layout of pull-through stations with a canopy over the top in most situations instead of throwing the baby out with the bathwater.
