So, approx 300,000 people are being evacuated from the Tampa, FL area ahead of Ian. Just imagine the lines, if they were recharging (or 10% or 1% of them were recharging) on their way to safety or back home.

If it takes ~50 minutes to recharge to 150mi, then they are spending ~25% of their travel time refueling. If we can agree it takes ~5 minutes to refuel gasoline, then with today's technology you will need probably 4-5x as many charging stations as we have fuel pumps to have the same bandwidth / throughput of charging customers on the road - and that is assuming that a significant number of people have home chargers..

50 minutes is no big deal overnight in your garage, but do you begin to see the issues of scale here, especially at times of a regional crisis??
