A regular (Level 2) charging station typically delivers around 2-6kW of power, so it takes several hours to charge a car completely. It's perfect for daily commute where you charge your car overnight at home or during daytime at work.

For fast charging, Tesla superchargers can deliver 150kW of power right now and 400kW chargers have been demonstrated. And you don't really need full 30MW for charging if you can drive 500 miles on a single charge.

So, summing up: there is no practical way to convert a corner gas station to a charging station, so it probably is not happening today, and such conversions are not a reason to doubt that gas will be easy to find 20 years from now.
