@NREL @LBNLresearch @INL have been working on #evcharging costs engaging stakeholders, collecting #costs data to understand the variations in cost components.

Cheaper installation of charging infrastructure is key to driving mass adoption of #ElectricVehicles! A new NREL-led project is enabling the deployment of a nationwide charging network by finding pathways to reduce hidden “soft costs.”

@Jay_S0204 Hey Jay! Let’s catch up sometime. I am on a vacation now…will be back at the end of Jan.

@apbandiv It is an incredible page. It is amazing how often I end up recommending it.

[Ranjit Desai Ph.D. @dranj24]

@ElephantEating Maybe they are just encouraging? Haha

@ErikJClarke Brew Coffee Culture on Colfax is one of go to.

@kyrib Congrats on getting it published! We had a journal sit on our paper for almost a year, and the comments were evident that the reviewers did not even read the paper. It was very frustrating, to say the least.

@EmilDimanchev @ElephantEating @colinmckerrache @arthurhcyip thanks Emil! In case you did not have a chance to look at the latest publication, here is the link https://t.co/G50OYyOydn We spoke about this paper in the past.

@ElephantEating @scottwahlstrom @Ericdwilliams0 Additionally, the charging infrastructure (L2 Vs DC) is growing rapidly. Plus, the use and access of home charging. So, instead of adding more complexities of charging, we treated it as a constraint, and the model still shows how the effects of heterogeneities and tech progress

[Ranjit Desai Ph.D. @dranj24]

@JohnHelveston @ElephantEating @Ericdwilliams0 Another reason why some EV outlooks look very optimistic Vs some don't.

fun journey of academic reviews...

[Eric Hittinger @ElephantEating]

And here is the *entire* review from Reviewer 2 (I shit you not):

[Ranjit Desai Ph.D. @dranj24]

@ElephantEating I am so glad that you made this post.
Add to that, 'please cite these papers on drones because your paper is on EV cars.' I am glad the 'reviewer' did not have papers on bullock carts.

[Ranjit Desai Ph.D. @dranj24]

@kyrib It has been a surprise to a lot of people. Especially a part where they can save money!

[Ranjit Desai Ph.D. @dranj24]

@ElephantEating Guessing, that’s a plan for the future then?
