A UK-centric Electric Vehicles community, where discussion/news of the wider European continent is welcome.

All discussion of EVs (and hybrids for the moment), charging networks, etc, welcome!

No USA/Americas news unless it is relevant to the UK/Europe - most of the existing EV communities on Lemmy are awash with US discussion, please use one of those. US news and discussion will be removed.

The main "global" EV community is !electricvehicles@slrpnk.net

As someone who owns an EV, that huge asphalt parking lot saddens me. Could they not plant some trees every other space or something?

to be fair to them, it was already a car park before it was converted for charging. It does now have a huge solar canopy.

And maybe cover it with solar panels?

Sort of defeats the object doesn't it?
