@JustinGerdes onteresting stiury, but I think it's misleading to lump plug-in hybrids with #BEVs.
@dschwarz Most of #Manhattan apt buildings don't have parking lots unless one lives in a #NYCHA building or northern Manhattan. But yes if you have a parking lot, there should be chargers. I work with #HarborLab and they got 2 #BEVs. They are great but the garage in #Queens where they live doesn't have an AC outlet and a garage in #LIC where I ran into didn't have one close enough.

For general public: TCO tool. A detailed calculator to help determine cost of EV ownership versus fossil fueled vehicle.

Note for U.S: Tool does not account for: Regenerative breaking for putting energy back into EV while at stop lights. Free charging stations at supermarkets, hotels, office buildings & shopping malls that are cropping up across country. Total discounts on electric bill when you charge at home.

For those of you that missed it.
Latest research study finds adding a thin layer of nickel foil to a standard EV battery allows it to charge up to 70% capacity/200 mile range in 10 minutes! https://bit.ly/3CYn9eW #materials #BEVs #EVs #batteries #engineering #energy #sustainability
