Electric Vehicles

I fully expect as EVs start becoming more popular, we'll see more businesses that build services around fast charging. Right now, it's more of an ad hoc situation, where these things are placed in small lots as just standalone charging because it's cheap and simple, but as it proves to be the case that people who are charging want something to do in the meantime, that kind of product and/or service will catch on.

Air, for instance - one could easily package an EV charging station with a compressor addon, allowing complementary tire inflating on their charging stations. Right now, they're just focused on making the chargers more capable and reliable, but when most brands are pretty consistent across the board, they will want more features to attract customers.

I can imagine investors are coming up with all sorts of ways to expand on chargers. I could see Montana going hard on adding little gambling outposts where you can sit and play slots and buy junk food from vending machines while you wait. I think it will be quite a while before we see gas stations shutting down due to lack of interest, but it should be a no-brainer to use that same building in nearly the same way, just for EV charging instead.
