Hi all,
I wondered what your opinion is about the future of electric cars? For me that's relevant, in particular because I have the option to install a complete electric heavy "infrastructure" (as if it's a house) in my garage right now (which means fiscal benefits if I do it now), or not (or later). This is where I park the car.
In my opinion, investing in a personal infrastructure (just) for charging, is well worth the money. Why? Because right now we charge our plugin cars with about 10 KWH, in a timespan of about 4 hours. Tesla's already "store" more energy in about the same time. I think, but please give your opinion about that, that in about 5 years time, the new generation electric cars will be able to drive at least 500+ miles, and charge within an hour. That means that a normal 16 amp charge will not be enough.
IF electric driving is the future (and in my opninion it is starting to look more and more like it, looking at breakthroughs regarding batteries, which however are not (yet!) implemented), any investment in an infrastructure that allows someone to charge fast ("ship" a lot of current / heavy powerflow) is worth it.
Do you share this opinion? Or will petrol just be replaced by hydrogen?
