Kathy Huchul announced Thursday that the state will follow in California’s footsteps by banning the sale of new gas-powered cars, pickup trucks, and SUVs by 2035.So without getting too hung up on the exact numbers, it is reasonable to say the vast majority of New York City car owners keep their cars parked on the street overnight.“The challenges facing NYC in building charging infrastructure should be well known by this time,” said Chris Nelder, formerly an electric vehicle charging expert for the Rocky Mountain Institute who has previous experience trying to work with Con Edison on charging projects.Con Ed could install 50 of them in a giant parking lot of a medical center, for example, which might look good on paper but be a very long walk from where most people in the area live.To this end, Nelder said, “A serious analysis would have to break down exactly how many cars park exactly where (street, private garage, public garage, home) and understand what the options are for each use-case.” Considering New York City doesn’t even know how many street parking spaces it has, such an analysis would be difficult."
