Is This a Solution to EV Charging? It’s Impossible to Know.
Right this minute, you’re reading the words of someone who has reviewed a couple of thousand cleantech business plans, and over the last 14 years in this endeavor, who’s developed a few guiding principles to simplify matters.
One is that presentations that demand more of readers’ attention on the problem than the solution are probably losers. Do I want to read dozens of pages explaining how climate change is a threat to humankind? No, I’d rather the author didn’t insult my intelligence, and concentrate on their proposed solution.
Here’s a great example. Yes, the widespread adoption of EVs will require ubiquitous charging stations, and people living in apartments face a challenge that doesn’t exist for owners of single-family dwellings. We all understand the problem, but we’d be more interested in the proposed solution.
As could be expected, it’s a call for would-be investors. But if you want investment dollars for your cure for cancer, perhaps you should tell us what it is.
I don’t know, maybe just another crazy idea.
Sounds good.
But it also takes someone that is open to listening about a paradign shift — to make such statements.
Where are they?
