Will the problems never end, vol.2

[Malcolm Parker]

I have nothing against EV's and I think an electric Austin 7 is an interesting experiment.  My concern is that there is simply not the infra-structure to support the rapidly increasing number of EV's.   Yes, it could be installed, but how long will it take?   Massive infra-structure schemes usually take a decade before anything actually happens, why should the provision of charging points countrywide be any different?  Take HS2 as an example.    Chances are that once the necessary charging points have been provided, they will already be inadequate for the demand.
