They're doing that in Oslo now, many street parking slots are getting 22 kW poles next to them. It's just a matter of political will.

Those exist in the Netherlands too, but the problem is that those spots are now _exclusive_ to EVs. An ICE car is not allowed to park there. I live in an area where >95% of parking spots are occupied on a given night. The current approach is, at least for the time being, only making it worse.

They are aiming to ban fossils completely in the city centre in Oslo anyway now. I think about 60% of the cars in the city are EVs already.

So if you have an EV you are pretty much guarenteed a parking space?

How is that making it worse?
