Revel told Teslarati that it will consider growing into other neighborhoods and boroughs once the company has more of an idea of where the fleet is being utilized most frequently. The TLC is fully committed to a 100% electrified future , just not at the cost of additional congestion,” Fromberg told Teslarati.
Berkeley will have a higher percentage than Fresno—it will not be unlikely for 3-5 PEVs to show up on one neighborhood circuit in Berkeley, overwhelming the local circuit, and leading to blackouts, he said. ” Furthermore, given that the distribution of PEVs will not be homogeneous—e.g., Earlier post.).
