I live on Long Island, New York. At this time, I don't give a hoot about "regulation". I charge at the charge point stations, which are free at this time, and I have had no problems with my ID card to get charges. The problem with charging stations here in new York is that there are not enough of them.
I feel they should be "de-regulated" and their numbers increased so that EV drivers, and the general public can see that electric cars are here to stay and are getting more popular. Right now, I would say that on long island, there are stations every 5-10 miles, which does not make sense unless you are planning to stay in that area for a while. That is why there are few (in my observation) EVs using the charging stations.
There should be legislations for tax breaks for every school, bank, supermarket, shopping center, library, etc. to boldly display that they have a charging stations there... Then there will be more incentives for current EV drivers to use the charging stations, and potential new drivers to see the convenience of "gassing up" while you go to the supermarket!. As an example, Remember when cash machines were new? You had to have an account at that bank, and you had to be lucky enough to have the bank with a cash machine near you..... Now there are cash machines everywhere, and they are all interconnected anywhere you go... THAT is the regulation we need, to increase users, and then the cost will also be lower for everyone...
