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.
