The variance in pricing needs to be tackled though. At home, on an EV-optimised electricity tariff, you can pay £0.10/kWh whereas at my local supermarket it’s about £0.45/kWh. You’re penalised for not having access to a charger in your flat. Compared to petrol, where it costs what it costs (ish).

Indeed the pricing is another big one. In public spots you'll have much higher prices than what you could get with domestic charging, meaning the ones who aren't home owners or can't have domestic charging get shafted further.
