While pretty much all countries do need to build out a lot more charging infrastructure, gas stations seem like the wrong place to do it. Service areas along highways, yes. Otherwise, do you not need a place with a large parking lot and something to do, like a shopping center or restaurant? I don’t see EVs ever being as fast as gasoline, plus what gas station would be able to put out that much juice? 80% of gas stations need to go out of business
