The fact that most of the car ads I see these days are for electric vehicles - especially trucks - makes me happy (slrpnk.net)

What are some other signs you've noticed that signal things are moving in the right direction?

There is a regional chain of grocery stores in my area that have level 2 and 50Kw level 3 chargers. They give you 1 free hour of level 2 charging per day (per location, I later discovered). At 9.6k charge rate, its not a huge savings, but I almost always use it when I grocery shop and its nice to come out to the car with 5% or 8% charged added.

beautiful I wonder if one day it'll be as simple as parking your car and having it wirelessly charge without even thinking about it

There was a company called Wiferion that was bringing this exact product to market. They were bought by Tesla though and nothing has since come out.

There is another company called Witricity that claims to have a product ready in 2025.
