    I’ll believe it when I see it.

    Honestly I’m surprised companies like Exxon, BP, and Chevron aren’t opening charging stations under shell companies with new brand names.

      Most of the time they don’t own the actual gas stations, they’d need to get their franchisees to do it and invest in it.

      Shell is their competitor so it wouldn’t make sense to do it under their companies for these guys
