False, the chargers have transformers, and I bet charging stations with 20+ chargers have local transformer stations too.
For one transformer station to supply for instance 12 chargers at 100 amps each or 4 at 300 amps each is both 1200 amps.
You obviously completely failed to understand my explanation that this is not what is happening on the scale of charging stations with many available charging slots.
Obviously these 1,5 MWh charging stations will not be availbale at you local grocery store, they are part of bigger installations with probably already around 20 charging slots of 300-400 kWh charging capacity.
