Measured by revenue less cost of operations (opex) and cost to carry capex (interest or opportunity cost) is there any proof that non-Tesla DC fast chargers are making any money from charging? Breaking even?

If they are, why aren’t more companies getting into installing chargers for profit?

If they aren’t, how do we ever get to sustainable, operational infrastructure that meets consumer expectations like the gas stations they’re used to?

    You should read their quarterly report or an 8-K. The answer is yes they are profitable.

    Franklin’s charging hub that has two locations is profitable at $0.35/kW and the big guys buying at wholesale get better rates. Then throw in SRECs (link)
