edit: I found a paper on IEEE that references this: Pulling Back the Veil on EV Charging Station Costs
but the prices on this article seem way too high

It's been noted that the Tesla supercharging stations are under $300,000 depending on location.
Supercharger: It Could Cost Half the Price of Gas | ARK
You'll find a couple other sources that list about the same price. It's not outrageous like a H2 filling station.
A home charger can cost $500 - $5000 depending on what needs to be done.
the slower 110v outlets are virtually free

I have not seen a EV charging station in our place yet or either an electric vehicle supply equipment. In case there will be one to install , I have read online that putting up an electric vehicle charging stations may be eligible for a tax credit of 30% of the qualifying costs, up to $30,000. So , I think, it will very expensive to have one though its convenient for those who own an electric car.
I don't know if the following is what you are looking for, but here it is:
I've placed an order for a Model S and last Friday installed a NEMA 14-50 outlet in preparation for its arrival. I got estimates from a number of sources which I summarize below:
1) our town offers off-peak discount EV rate if we install a second meter. I took this option. It cost me $1600.00 for installing the meter (and hook up to main from street), circuit breaker, wiring and a NEMA 14-50 outlet.
2) my second option was to just use the normal rate and install the outlet off of the existing panel. Since our panel iis 100 amp max, we needed to upgrade to a 200 amp panel. The estimated cost for this option was $3000.00.
Some relevant cost factors: The installation was done in Boston area and the outlet was installed about 10 feet away from the planet/meter.
Hope this helps.
