Pricing of public chargers
Discussion
A couple of things that have annoyed me recently, having tried public charging a couple of times.
Firstly, I am a newbie at charging on public chargers but
1. Why is the pricing all over the place? For example whilst in Edgbaston this weekend within a small radius I could be charged 92p/KW or 58p/KW? Surely no one pays 50% more and why has competition not evened out the pricing?
2. It is often not obvious how much each charging station is? You have to get out the car flick through numerous screens before you realise zapmap has the pricing completely wrong? Why no legislation (is it?) like petrol stations with really clear signage above each charger??
First world problems, I know, but an annoyance.
