☆ Porsche reveals a new hybrid 911 as more consumers embrace hybrids over electric vehicles

They have become increasingly popular in the United States even as sales of purely electric models have started to slow. The German automaker Porsche, a division of Volkswagen AG, already sells plug-in hybrid models like the Cayenne e-Hybrid SUV and Panamera e-Hybrid four-door car, but a hybrid 911 is another matter. Initially, hybrid power will be available in only one version of the car, the high performance 911 Carrera GTS. In another major change for Porsche, this car will not be a plug-in hybrid, as other Porsche hybrid models have been. Besides hybrids, Porsche also sells fully electric cars, the Taycan and the new Macan Electric SUV.

☆ Why EV charging is still such a pain

Power show that, despite more and more EV chargers being available, EV owners are actually getting less satisfied with public charging. When it comes to consumer satisfaction, EV charging is in some very poor corporate company. Away from home, charging your EV costs more than charging at home, sometimes twice as much.

☆ UBS thinks this beaten-down electric vehicle charging stock can bounce back and rally more than 85%

Electric-vehicle charging stations provider ChargePoint could make a massive recovery, according to UBS. He assigned a price target of $9, implying shares could gain 85.6% from Tuesday's closing price. UBS said the worsened sentiment around ChargePoint has created an "attractive risk/reward" profile for investors. The company has 33,000 charging stations, UBS noted. "This charging type leverages dwell times of cars and are therefore deployed in settings where EVs will be parked for several hours."

A Tesla charging station stands in a parking lot on January 17, 2023 in Springfield, Virginia. But other EV charging companies have, so far, faced a far greater reliability challenge than Tesla’s. It’s an integrated system and has been from the very beginning,” said Jim Burness, chief executive of National Car Charging, a wholesaler of equipment to the EV charging industry. In both cases, drivers will be able to access Tesla chargers without having to use Tesla apps. That could lead to more lines at Tesla chargers, irritating Tesla owners.

Microsoft bet billions on OpenAI — its gamble is already paying off. Some analysts said Microsoft's successful integration of AI signals that it has already pulled ahead of Google. They even projected that Microsoft's cloud service Azure could be on track to surpass long-dominant Amazon Web Services. My teammate Paayal Zaveri highlights how Microsoft's AI wager has made it a surprising leader in tech's hottest field. He hit $2 million by the end of 2020, and in 2022 alone, he sold $4 million worth of products.
☆ Walmart plans own EV charger network at U.S. stores by 2030
  + stars: | 2023-04-06 | by ( Siddharth Cavale Abhirup Roy | Siddharth Cavale | Abhirup Roy | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
NEW YORK, April 6 (Reuters) - Walmart Inc (WMT.N) plans to have its own network of electric vehicle charging stations by 2030 to tap into the growing adoption of EVs in the United States. Walmart's more than 5,000 stores and Sam's Club warehouses are located within 10 miles of about 90% of Americans. As EV charging infrastructure ramps up in the U.S., there are widespread concerns over uptime, performance, ease of use and high installation costs of the machines. Owning its chargers, instead of partnering with a network operator, will help Walmart address reliability and cost issues, Kapadia said. Walmart's plan comes as U.S. President Joe Biden has committed to building a network of 500,000 public EV chargers by 2030.
☆ Biden wants EV chargers on every 50 miles of highway. That misses a key piece of the electrification puzzle.
  + stars: | 2023-02-15 | by ( Alexa St. John | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
But to boost EV adoption, not all chargers need to be on highways, experts say. The goal is to put 500,000 public EV chargers on US roads by 2030, up from about 130,000 currently. EV chargers need to meet people where they're at. Studies suggest that a lack of reliable and functional EV charging is one of the biggest factors standing in the way of consumer EV adoption. Of note, however, is that a majority of EV charging can technically be done at home.
☆ Hertz is bringing thousands of EVs and chargers to the city of Denver in a broad new partnership
  + stars: | 2023-01-19 | by ( John Rosevear | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +4 min
In addition to building chargers in lower-income neighborhoods, Hertz will provide EVs, tools and training to the city's technical high school — and will offer summer job opportunities through Denver's Youth Employment Program. Scherr said that Hertz plans to share anonymized location data from its rental EVs with the city to help Denver officials determine where to install new charging stations. He expects that some of that data will point to sites in the city's less affluent neighborhoods, where ride-share drivers using Hertz EVs tend to live. The company currently has about 40,000 Teslas and Polestars available for rental, Scherr said. Last fall, Hertz and BP Pulse announced they would partner to install thousands of high-speed EV chargers at Hertz locations across the U.S.

REUTERS/Ints KalninsBERLIN, Jan 5 (Reuters) - Mercedes-Benz (MBGn.DE) is poised to invest billions of euros to build 10,000 fast-charging points in North America, Europe and China by 2030, the luxury carmaker said on Thursday. The carmaker will commence construction in North America this year, targeting 2,500 charging points at 400 locations across most U.S. states and Canada by 2027, it said at the CES car show in Las Vegas which runs from Jan. 5-8. The United States has around 140,000 public EV chargers, according to July 2022 data from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. Still, the region requires at least 3.4 million charging points by 2030 to meet an expected rise in demand, the study said.

☆ Why convenience stores aren't rushing to replace gas pumps with EV chargers
  + stars: | 2022-10-18 | by ( Matt Mcfarland | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +8 min
Washington, DC CNN —Gas stations with convenience stores seem like an obvious location for electric vehicle chargers. The bipartisan infrastructure bill is providing $7.5 billion to help pay for electric vehicle chargers that could help gradually replace gas pumps. Convenience stores with fuel pumps account for 80% of fuel purchased in the US, according to the industry trade group. Customers charging electric vehicles must stick around longer, so they may be more likely to buy food and other goods. That way the convenience stores aren’t pulling a huge amount of power from the grid at once.
