Rethinking Parking and Charging for Electric Cars

Installing public charging stations requires rethinking the way people view parking and charging. The chargers are not meant for long-term parking, but for quick shuffling in and out. This will lead to a significant shift in people's relationship with parking. However, the negative side is that this opportunity to repurpose public space will be missed, as expensive infrastructure will continue to prioritize parking cars. The choice is to make a positive change now or repeat mistakes made over the past century.
