Electric car charge points to overtake fuel pumps

I walked past our local Tesco a couple of weeks ago and noticed 6 charge points - all occupied. The car park probably held 200 cars at the time.

I can't help feeling we're heading for a bit of a cock-up with electric vehicles, especially as the electricity needs to be generated by something, and those somethings are soon to be banned or sold at very high prices . . . could be paying £1 a mile by 2030
The Government's is looking at permitting onshore wind farms again which would help with more and cheaper electricity generation, but there is a split in the Cabinet.
