Can’t speak for other brands but you’re not unhooking that Tesla charger without the phone key or keycard.

For those that may be interested, the London Borough I work for, currently have between 200-300 charge points with the intention of expanding this to 2000 within 4 years. My team is delivering this. I can't speak for the rest of GB, but...
That's actually really fucking cool, had no idea that's what you did. Curious about the day-to-day or organising something like this and how it all comes together, if you were willing to elaborate more (without disclosing anything sensitive, obv).

I'm also curious about
- Power delivery - what's the current?
- Availability / repair SLAs - big problem in London / wider UK is that reliability of EV charging points is sketchy, especially compared to Tesla. You drive a few miles to get one only to find that it's out of order
- Location - with that many, I'm guessing all over the place (street parking, shopping centres etc)

There are some very remote places in the UK as well where I doubt the infrastructure would ever be suitable or good enough for EV only vehicles
