A truck stop with 50 truck supercharging stations would allegedly eat as much electricity as a city of a few thousand people
This is a major hurdle for the technology. What they should be doing is collaborating on making their batteries easily replaceable to instead of recharging stations they (both semis and consumer vehicles) could just have the batteries swapped out for fully-charged ones. Ideally it should take no longer than filling up a tank of gas on your average consumer vehicle.
