In most cases the end users will likely pay charging fees which will more than cover the cost of the power. Should universities offer "free" charging to students/faculty, those costs will likely be recouped via tuition. Some businesses choose to offer free charging to employees as part of their compensation package. And in the case of charging for public transport (electric buses/shuttles/etc), operational costs will be reduced saving taxpayer dollars.

I was wondering if the charging stations would be like those vacuum pumps or air compressors at gas stations. You’d put in your credit card to pay. I guess they aren’t.

Private businesses offering free charging is fine, govt and universities should not. Not sure how you equate it to the cost of gas, but someone needs to come up with that if we are going to try to tax all citzens accordingly based upon their vehicle choices.
