Installing EV Charging Units in Petrol Stations

Roger B
Petrol stations have various strict requirements regarding their electrical installations for obvious reasons. How will adding a MW size supply for a few high power chargers be dealt with, separation? Will earth leakage currents be a problem? If I remember correctly the reason the canopys are so high is to move the lighting into a different zone.

    I have also often wondered if it would be better to re-invent  motorail and keep cars on the move while charging them from the train.


     


    Why move all those lumps of metal on the train? Just move the people and have a car share system at the stations like this:

    Unfortunately it would need a similar mind set change to that required to move the Brit's into energy efficient appartments rather then unefficient my home is my castle detached houses.
