I doubt that. They'll charge more than what they need to to the airlines in gate fees. It'll be a "electric charging surcharge fee". Eventually this sort of thing will save airports money, not needing as many refuelling trucks, tanker storage, and all the costs that go with it. Airline fuel isn't exactly easy, but they do it by charging the appropriate price.
