| Free electric power at work... Regarding this post from last March:
»My company is awesome..
Here is the state of things now.
I have seen up to 4 Leafs in the charging area at a time. The boss rarely drives his Tesla, but he's based in Florida, so he's not always here.
I like the looks of the new Ford Focus electric better than the Leaf, personally. |

kudos:2 | That's really cool.
Just the other day I was thinking about all the people who live in apartments or in areas where they have to park their car on the street or in a parking lot. How would they charge their cars if they bought a hybrid/electric car?

You work for Citrix? I got sooo many issues with you guys.
But charging station is sufficient incentive to get electric car and gas guzzler for the weeekend. I wish my company did that....

They didn't do it for you guys, they just did it for the boss who wants to charge his Tesla no matter which parking space he parks into.  |

San Jose, CA | I think things like this will drive a lot of electric car sales, especially in urban areas that are not well served by mass transit like in Silicon Valley. |
|
| Not if the cars cost $40,000. Get back to me when someone invents a $20,000 car I can drive 350 miles at 85 mph with the air-conditioning on. Oh, wait... |

kudos:1 | Early innovator tax, typical of new tech. These companies have plenty of well paid employees so its not that big of a deal there. You can thank them later when this stuff goes mainstream, I'm glad this stuff is picking up rather than hydrogen. |

Until your electric rates go up to 50+ c/kWh to pay for the additional generating/distribution capacity. |

Sweet they are offering that at my wife's work place also. She works a 12 hour shift and about 3 miles from work...tempting. For bonus points the spots are by the front door. |
