New regulations rolled out by the Biden administration have put America on a very fast road to an all-electric future. In just seven years, 60% of all new cars sold in the U.S. will have to run on batteries.Because EVs now take four to six hours to fully charge, the city will need tens of thousands of spots where car owners can park and plug in. At present, there are just 184 publicly available charging ports.
Since few Philadelphia car owners have garages or private parking spaces, it seems likely that the city’s future charging network will end up in that public netherland between the curb and sidewalk — transforming our public thoroughfares as profoundly as street lights and underground sewers did a century ago.
Unless the city takes a strong hand in the design and placement of electric chargers, columnist Inga Saffron writes, we could soon see a land rush as people claim curb space for ad hoc charger installations, resulting in the same kind of chaos we had with streeteries.
