Actually Electrify America can charge at 350 kW. They have to actively cool the cables to keep them from overheating.
> in Tesla world it's shared between chargers so if you have few Teslas charging at once no one is getting 250kW.
I think with v3 Superchargers, this is no longer true. There is a megawatt allocated per 4 chargers. I'm not sure how much this applies to the really big stations, because it seems they could be using multiple megawatts of power.
