If we are talking downtown office parking with chargers, the charging is part of the building infrastructure and considered a tenant amenity built into your monthly parking fees.
You are already either paying $500/month out of pocket or at least $250/month in taxable benefits already even if your employer is paying for your parking spot. I am considering it just to recoup some of that egregious parking cost.
The problem is when everybody is driving an EV and there are only 4 spots for 400 stalls and you end up driving to work at 5AM just to get one of them.
