GE announce new fast charging points

I picked this up from Edie today: GE Charging Points
It's a month old so I guess a lot of people will be aware; however, it prompted me to think again about motivation vis-a-vis personal electric transport. This technology boasts a 4-hour charge time which still seems to me to be not yet in the league for mass uptake. I think we still await substantive grid de-carbonisation and a significant liquid fuel/electricity price differential before EVs take off.

Incidentally, I've been playing with DECC's 2050 calculator. There's much food for thought there; perhaps a later post, too.
