Here's a question! What will happen to the filling stations in upcoming Towns & City CAZ & ULEZ's? Will they still be viable businesses only being able to cater for Euro Cat 6 vehicles which will only be allowed into the zones?
I can see most of them being retrofitted with fast chargers for BEV's. I read yesterday that 1 in 10 new cars are now Hybrid,PHEV or BEV and we're nowhere near parity with ICE cars yet.
They reckon the magic number is $100/Kwh to reach a level playing field with ICE vehicles, they're currently at $156/Kwh. They say it will take two more years for the cost of batteries to come down to that level.
