What people don’t realize, where do you charge when living in apartments, duplexes with no garages, basically in 75-80% of residences in the United States?
For those living in single family homes, you might be able to charge every night, but how many would need an electric service upgrade for an EV charging station? I no we would, and our house was built 40 years ago.

Many apartment complexes are putting in charging stations.

I think it's like $400 to put in the plug.

Depends on what your charging at. I would venture most would be able to support a 30 or 40amp service without necessarily a panel or service upgrade. Given that most people are charging at night, you usually dint have to worry about concurrent draws from high amp appliances like the oven or dryer etc. This is sufficient for most people's charging needs. Obviously 60 or 80amp service would be pushing it for a lot of people's panels.

Look up a little known town called London. They are doing this just fine
