You don't install chargers in thru-ways (like a gas-pump) and you don't install gas-pumps on the fringes where you'd normally have parking (like an EV charger).

You don't install chargers in thru-ways (like a gas-pump) and you don't install gas-pumps on the fringes where you'd normally have parking (like an EV charger). I don't think the land-use argument really holds, here, since it would likely be installed where there's simply parking. And by increasing the density of chargers, you are spreading out the usage, so _per station_ the increase in cars idling in their lots I don't think would be a significant problem.
