BP (NYSE:BP) and Electric Car Chargers a Waste of Time

In an attempt to appease radical environmentalists, BP (NYSE:BP) ignorantly has decided to put electric car charges in 45 of its BP and ARCO stations.

One thing BP needs to learn is this is a form of extortion and once they do it, the environmentalists will continue to attack the company because of their warped ideology.

This is a belief system by many extreme environmentalists, and not just a concern about conservation and responsibility.

What a waste of money in reference to electric cars and chargers, which is nothing more than throwing money down a whole.

BP is partaking in what is called ECOtality's EV Project, which has a goal of have 15,000 of ECOtality's Blink electric vehicle DC Fast Chargers installed across six states eventually.

BP spokesman Kevin Phelan, vice president of sales and marketing for BP, said, "We understand the importance of finding future energy solutions and this pilot allows us to test EV charging technology, gather real-world data and learn about how motorists use and charge electric vehicles."
