Lots' of work to do before Electric Vehicle become mainstream

But after switching to driving a plug-in electric sedan, she quickly realized a new complication of apartment living: Access to a charging station.
Schubach’s hardly alone. Even as it appears electric car sales are hitting a tipping point, those living in apartments and condominiums around the nation can find it difficult, expensive or outright impossible to find a way to plug in when they’re at home.
With nearly one out of three households living in apartments or condominiums, the goal of switching to electric vehicles to fight climate change and save on gas becomes all the more challenging.

This will become a changing factor in Multi-Family Units Construction, to develop access to "Charging Ports". It's likely to add an additional fee for parking spots with these charging port, and developing a means to either tie it to a Unit's Electical Bill, or a Monthly Charging Fee for those who use it. It may even come with a surcharge for these units being built into the design development, whether a person uses it or not, with an added fee for the usage.
Cable companies already have such structure, where they charge a base fee for having accept to local TV programming, and a Sports fee, even if one does not have the Sports Package with their service.
Technology does not come at no cost. Already there are cities where Parking is a challenge, and in some places if people have a two car household, they may only have one parking spot provided with the rental unit.
The Electric Vehicle Transistioning has lots of details to work out.
Will Business and Industry have "Charging Stations"?
Will Gas Stations begin to be built with alternate 'Electric Vehicle Charging Stations"... what type of security will be put in place for parking while charging in Public Access Service Stations.
Maybe they will develop rotor within the Axel housing that help provide some level of recharge the vehicle's Battery while its rolling during driving that might add 10-15-20-30% of additional mileage between full charge. It's likely that technology will continue to find ways to improve recharge techniques, to minimize the time needed for fixed station recharges.

Extraordinarily frustrated': Renters can find no place to plug in electric vehicles
All Hillary Schubach wanted to do is something good for the environment.But after switching to driving a plug-in electric sedan, she quickly realized a new complication of apartment living: Access to a charging station.
