How does a business that doesn't provide any service say in business? From the article: > How did the state-subsidized public charger system end up so problematic? California’s policies are at least partly to blame. The state chose not to require that charger companies meet performance standards as it doled out $1 billion in subsidies, grants and other assistance to charger companies, with billions more on the way. There it is. I suppose one silver lining with this "just build chargers, any chargers will do" approach is the faulty locations that currently exist can be made reliable in time, at least the space is reserved. The state just needs to fix their broken incentives.
