This is interesting, because the social concept of charging is being formed. Will charging be like a gas station, where you are only allowed to be at the charger while using it, or will it be like parking, where you usually have an implied right to use a space until you move your car away.
I think that at least for employer provided free charging it should be the latter. Whenever people start fighting over charging spots, or start leaving work to shuffle cars around, the employer loses. An employer should just set up simple free charging to as many spaces as necessary, so people can just park, plug in and not worry about their car.
You can just run an electric cable in a conduit by a row of parking spaces, and put in simple weather protected 110V plugs along it. Over 8 hours this should provide more than enough energy for a simple commute. For people that must have high speed charging, you can put in a couple of paid chargers.
