    you also have the benefit that having chargers at work would be a positive workplace benefit as not needing to pay for “gas” adds up over time.

    the averge person spends most of their time during daytime away from home, so its far less practical to have solar at home.

      the averge person spends most of their time during daytime away from home, so its far less practical to have solar at home.

      Only because of hostility to work-from-home policies; plenty of people spent their days at home during the pandemic, and there’s also carers and the elderly that are home most of the time.

      But this is definitely a “why not both” scenario as both will have benefits and aid in greater decentralisation of the grid, reducing the risk of down time (whether intentional or otherwise).
