The ‘greenest’ way to charge is often going to be during the middle of the day while your EV is parked while you are at work since solar panel electricity will most likely be available.

Any one commenting on EV’s should first become aware of Ohm’s law. You need to become conversant with Amperes and Watts, at least. Rapid car chargers use a LOT of wattage, around 10Kw (10,000 Watts) or more. First you will need a bunch of solar panels to get 10Kw, and the other problem is that almost all batteries are degraded (they lose capacity) from rapid charging.
