Re: the availability of home charging:
We estimate that less than half of US vehicles have reliable access to a
dedicated off-street parking space at an owned residence where charging infrastructure
could be installed. Specifically, while approximately 79% households have off-street parking for at least some of their vehicles, only an estimated 56% of vehicles have a dedicated
off-street parking space – and only 47% at an owned residence. Approximately 22% vehicles
currently have access to a dedicated home parking space within reach of an outlet sufficient to recharge a small plug-in vehicle battery pack overnight

This obviously doesn’t address new charging capital at commercial establishments for day-charging. Although one advantage of night-charging is in using off-peak electricity to reduce the need for new generating capacity.
