Well, the article imprecisely referred to "high speed chargers." Do you
think they are concerned by everyone using level 2 at the same time ?
Second, the article mentions a cul-de-sac as an example case. I think it
matters a lot where people charge. If the L3 chargers are in a
residential setting, they will put more load on a system already near
max during peak periods. Commercial already has much higher capacity and
L3 chargers probably don't add so much additional load. Correct me if
I'm wrong.

First, why do utilities think people will install level 3 chargers ? A
small percentage of people really do drive that much every day,
I think the utilities are expecting that people will use Public level 3
chargers during the day and private level 2 at night.
I.e. for the majority of people, their vehicles are not home during peak solar,
and perhaps also not home during the early evenings.
From the utlities point of view, it doesn't matter where they charge, only that
they are charging.
