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.

Right now with Tesla, you don't have to input anything. The credit card is tied to your Tesla account, you just plug in and charge. It'll show you on the screen of your car the cost as you continue to charge, similar to watching the amount go up while getting gas.
