It's not even "next generation" chargers; it's next generation EVs at this point. Nearly all new Electrify America rapid charging locations have at least one station that can do 350kW. We're just waiting for EVs like the Taycan* to be released (less than 1 month -- Sept 4th!) to be able to accept charge rates approaching that. EA is on-track to get 2,000 fast chargers at nearly 500 locations up and running by end-of-2019.
*The first generation Taycan will charge at 250kW. But the infrastructure is coming online now as EV manufacturers iterate on battery pack technology to accept faster charge rates.
