Peri, yep exactly. This is just providing 90 charging outlets that can be scheduled, and probably also billed, to residents. Without the smarts, you would need 90 x 50 Amp service, nobody wants to pay to lay cable and connections for 4500 Amp service (over a MegaWatt!) for only a few EV owners. This solution allows the installation to grow over time, paying for itself with the billing tied to the scheduling and nobody will complain about stealing power from the community.
