Gary discusses the evolution of EVs, charging infrastructure, and public perception since 2019. Topics include the growth of Chargepoint Operators (CPOs), the challenges of misinformation, and the increasing integration of EVs with renewable energy systems.

Gary also highlights key milestones in EV development, such as the rise of Tesla, the BMW i3, and the Korean EV market.
