That will teach these folks that they have to have their EV's stored in a temperature controlled climate for charging. Perhaps they can redesign the battery packs to have a separate heating jacket for the battery. Plug that in separately and use electricity to heat the battery to the optimal temperature to charge. Either way, the amount of energy required to charge EV's seems to be getting less and less efficient, as time goes by. What we really need is a much more efficient and energy dense battery technology. A battery that lasts at least 20 years and has a wider temperature range. Ideally capacitors would be the best solution, if they could ever create super capacitor that could serve as a dense enough charge storage. Capacitors can last a very long time. Some in excess of 50 years and still going, but these are predominantly low voltage.
