Most of the new builds I see are multi storey so best of luck with that one.
40% don't have off road parking so this is a real issue and I'm far from sure it's being addressed. I was involved in an exchange on a Facebook page recently when I was accused of being negative after querying one post saying "most people charge at home" - at present that is almost certainly true because the majority, not all, but a majority of current EV owners tend to be better off and resident in detached houses. Somebody put up a post saying "this has been sorted" and showed a picture of some pavement mounted device. It hasn't been sorted and pavement charging in in its infancy with a lot of issues to be sorted. My daughter, just one example, has no off street parking and she can't always park outside her house. She is resigned to charging at work when/if her college installs points. They'll need a lot of points.
EV evangelists always like to say that there are more EV charge points than petrol stations and there are but they fail to take into account that a petrol station will typically have 15 to 20 hoses whereas an EV charge station might only have 2 points. I have seen one estimate that we will need several million public charge points.
We are not even close to where we need to be. I accept things might look different towards the end of the decade but I sense a complacency in government circles.
