It looks like Rivian is going to also be building a charging network.
Rivian is building its own EV charging network, but with an adventurous twist – TechCrunch
The part that excites me, and I wish more charging networks took into consideration, is the 'off-highway' locations.
"Rivian is adding a second layer to its electric vehicle charging game plan that’s atypical of the industry. The company will set up dozens of EV chargers designed to power up its electric vehicles while parked at adventurous destinations, from mountain bike and hiking trails to kayaking spots and maybe even near popular climbing crags."
Being able to charge the car while I'm on a 3+ hour hike could be really helpful. The hard part is those places rarely have power run to them (maybe for a street light or something in the parking lot) and almost certainly don't have more than the bare minimum.
