Gas stations can't and won't be blanket converted to charging stations. The use models are just not compatible.
EV chargers belong in gigantic parking lots. So shopping centers and office complexes. The great thing about putting chargers in these locations is that they are both often close to highways, are places that people regularly visit, and they have complimentary usage hours (offices are empty when shopping centers are full, and vice versa).
Along you're lines chargers are commercial parking lots needs to be prioritized.
At least in California there is now often a glut of solar power during the day when presumably a lot of cars are parked at peoples workplaces.
