    Is there really any incentive for public EV charging facilities to offer reasonable pricing? Whenever I’ve looked, it seems like most of the sites with faster charging seem happy to charge for the privilege and that means a full battery and a full tank of diesel/petrol aren’t wildly different in price.

    Gridserve now charging 79p/kWh. I really want to switch to EV but, short of being able to charge at home at cheap overnight rates, you’re going to pay over the odds. I fully understand everyone needs to make a profit but without sites like the above I’m still not convinced.

    I know there’s  lot of products in the world that are priced based on the value the customer puts on them vs the cost of production but EV charge pricing feels, in general, like it’s going the *wrong way*
