The only way most people can time-shift charging their electric cars to the daytime is if their parking spot at their job has a charging station. Practically, that means a very large fraction of office building parking spots will need charging stations. That sounds prohibitively expensive. Incentives can only nudge so far before you run into genuine problems of logistics.

- adgjlsfhk1 5y agocharging stations for building parking don't need to be high speed, so the cost is just putting in an outlet (probably a 240 volt one)
