This is the big #EV charging "superhub" by Instavolt at three maids hill near #Winchester
There's a loo, and Starbucks selling, well, warm drinks and so on, and it is clean and neat, and there are a lot of chargers, and fast.

There's even a little parking area for half a dozen cars that are not there to charge. The #ICEVs huddle.

EVs Endure Canada’s Deep Freeze Despite Cold Snap, Infrastructure Hurdles

Last week’s cold snap brought North America its lowest temperatures so far this winter, precipitating a flurry of reports about electric vehicle batteries failing in the cold—but EV drivers in some of Canada’s frostiest parts have their own story to tell.

The Energy Mix

Obviously, to some extent, EVs are better than ICEVs, but in this case, "slightly better" has taken the place of real solutions.

I am in favor of low-power, low-speed, short-range #NEVs (neighborhood electric vehicles), #motorcycles, #ebikes and #emobility devices.

I am not in favor of #EVs meant as a 1-for-1 replacement for #ICEVs, with 500+ Km ranges and 100+ Km/h speeds.

It is the speed, range, and cargo capacity of motor vehicles which is the real problem, not their fuel.

@Halsevesenet This seems like an important finding. I am glad that incentives are being removed as #EVs become increasingly competitive in terms of their ownership costs compared to #ICEVs.
