I wonder what the implications on the gas stations are. I can only imagine that lots of them will close in the next few years.

In this 2021 article they say that some shell gas stations are already reducing the number of fuel pumps - and that was three years ago.

Most gas stations are rebranding to energy stations and swapping out fuel pumps for ev fast charges

I cant wait to hear about the gas station hunt stories from Norway.

Norway has some pretty remote areas. Just imagine how you would feel if the only gas station in 50 miles closes down and converts to EV only

Good thing that gas cars have models with 800 miles of range.
