As an EV owner I see not much reasons to agree, I'm from EU so my point of view might be different but... I almost NEVER charge of public chargers except on highways. I sometimes charge on some sparse public chargers in cities but as a comfy way to have a pack place where no other option is available for the amount of time I need.
Essentially: I have not bought an EV if I can't recharge it at home. No one can have a life on public-charging only, no matter how spread will might became.
IME the real needs for public charging are:
- on highway, for trips longer than the battery range, so fast charge
- similar for long range artery not necessarily highways
- inside parking lot/garage of hotels/other touristic places, for visitors
- casual fast chargers spread just for quick "emergency" charges
In this terms the low level of EU offer is already more than enough, try to do more targeting those who do not own a garage is pointless: they'll never buy EVs until being forced and even in this case they'll probably can't afford them anyway.
