For some electric vehicle owners, recharging now more costly than filling up

First of all, love the username. Second, generally are these costs subsidized through manufacturer or state rebates maybe? I'm curious how it's sustainable at an individual office level to have free charging for all, given that the energy ultimately comes from somewhere and has to be accounted for somehow.

Where I work it's basically a perk I suppose, plus an investment in green energy. There are 20 Charge Point hookups (10 stations, 2 outlets) and we are free for the first 4 hours.

I look forward to the day when it's "Where is a gas station?" and not "Where is a charging station?"

PS Was deemed worthy by pugs some years ago - ergo the name
