Paris Is Doing Public EV Charging Right

Source: Fleet Management Weekly

One of the biggest hurdles facing widespread EV adoption in the U.S. is the issue of charging. But in many European cities, EV infrastructure is much farther along.

Street parking in Paris is plentiful, and all throughout the city, curbside parking spots offer EV charging stations from the company Belib, which seems to have the ideal strategy for public charging. The charging stations are equipped with a variety of socket types so just about any EV can plug in, and there are different types of stations that cater to different needs. If you’re in a rush, nab a pricier 22-kW Boost charger; if you’ve got some time, go for a lower-priced Flex charger for 3.7 to 7 kW of juice.
