Decentralized EV Charging
summary
DeCharge outlines a concrete rollout: 700+ chargers deployed across Southeast Asia, India, the US and Europe using an Airbnb-like model where garages or parking lots host chargers and revenues flow to local wallets. Charges cost about $0.45–$0.50/kWh while wholesale is ~$0.15/kWh, creating real yield for communities; outside investors can pool capital to fund sites. Regulatory conversations with the SEC frame properly structured DePIN offerings as utility, not security, enabling community-owned microgrid economies.
