[QUOTE="mbasko, post: 675545, member: 4485"] I'm assuming that the base price will rise in line with any electricity price rises at charging stations? Obviously the cost you pay at home is whatever you pay & can be free (solar/battery storage) up to ~38c/kWh depending on time of day + location. An EV charging station price comparison from October 2023 shows prices vary from 0.45c/kWh to 0.85c/kWh depending on charging station supplier & location. Some sites change pricing depending on the time of day & demand (variable pricing). Some also charge "idling fees" for overstaying once charged Example is Tesla charge $0.50 per minute charge when the location is at least half full or $1.00 per minute when fully occupied. The overstay fee starts if the vehicle is plugged-in – but finished charging – after five minutes. It will be interesting to see if the per kWh price rises once Government assistance with charging station installs etc. ends & also by how much once they start to need to replace fossil fuel excise with a "green" fuel excise to keep the coffers full?
