Usually shortages show up when prices can’t adjust freely. Are charging prices capped?

I mean, if you could do something where the price would reflect demand in a given area, I bet you’d have people installing more. Maybe auction off reserved charging timeslots or something (“app, find and reserve for me the closest charging station with a rate of no more than X”), if that isn’t already done.

Charging prices are usually depending on the contracts people have. So I can go to any charger in Germany and the prices will be the same, no matter the day or time.

They are overpriced as it is. That’s one of the reasons electric cars aren’t more in demand. They are far more expensive, but if you can’t charge at home you don’t even save in operating costs.
