There are US charging standards now.[1] And a subsidy program which is probably too big.
Basic US standards:
- At least four charging stations per location.
- At least 150KW per charger.
- 97% uptime.
- May not require a membership. Must accept credit cards. May not charge more without a membership. Must display price per KwH before charging. Phone-based and car-based payment interfaces allowed but must not be required of the customer.
- States getting funding must have a charging station every 50 miles along Interstate highways.
- Must support CCS connector. Other connectors optional.
This is not fully compatible with Tesla's business model, which may be a problem for Tesla.
