Am sure the technology exists – has actually been around since Tesla. These people dread the word ‘free’. They must be trying to figure out how to deliver it in a ‘chargeable (pay-per-use) manner! I think big money, and not user convenience, is once again the bigger consideration here. We all still pay for electricity, don’t we?
