If electric cars need more public places to charge, maybe they could just go to gas stations.

That seems to be the approach behind the latest installations of EVgo stations in California.

The company, which bills itself as the largest operator of DC fast charging stations in the U.S., formed an alliance with Chevron to install up to 12 DC fast chargers at 5 Chevron stations in California.

The first of these stations opened on Monday in Menlo Park, in the Silicon Valley. Others are under construction, and will offer chargers with 50 to 100 kilowatts, which can recharge a car at a maximum rate of about 6 miles per minute (until the battery reaches its "bulk charge" of 80 percent.)

Pun intended, this short 1min41sec video is like watching a car race on the history of BEV sales. Had to watch a few times to digest everything. Fas cinating.
