It seems that charging points are rated in the range 25-50kWh (depending on whether they are 'fast' or not) so one fast public charging point will pull more when in use that a standard house.

So indeed if you install 100 of them in a tourist hotspot that means peaks of 5MWh, which again I suspect would take down the whole local electric subsystem and maybe the grid has not even enough capacity in the area.

Let's just say that I plan to keep my diesel car as long as economically possible...
