I'm not sure I agree there is a massive infrastructure need. The average American could keep their EV charged today with a standard 120v outlet.

I don't have numbers for how any car owners park their car overnight somewhere that has access to a 120v plug, but it would surprise me if it was less than 50%.

Batteries are fine today and I lay getting better, fast charging is nice to have, but definitely not needed.
