  • Hopefully they will have it so that the EV charging stations included will be under canopies to protect them from the weather, as I know that that is a big problem with current canopy-less implementations.

    • Gas pumps have had canopies for as long as I can remember. This should be expected.

      • Indeed it should, though there are many EV charging stations where it isn't the case, especially in America. Tesla's Charging locations are like that, they usually don't have a canopy over the Chargers, which in my opinion doesn't seem like a great practice because it exposes the machines to the elements and make them unpleasant for users when it's raining or snowing.
