I'm guessing you meant CHAdeMO. :)

Not sure if you're aware of the costs, but I'd imagine the installation and hardware costs would be about as high as in the US.

I started Chevy Spark EV Forum • View topic - installation + ongoing costs for public L2 & DC FC stations long ago. The RMI link is dead but there's a copy at Pulling Back the Veil on EV Charging Station Costs.

Nissan was installing $15.5K USD Nissan Quick Charger - CHAdeMO DC Fast Charging for Electric Vehicles at dealers. I presume the $49K figure I cited there included the $15.5K charger itself.
 
Tritium quoted an Australian price of $30k - then you've got to install it.
The current (haha) CHAdeMO adapter gives approx 200 km/hr charge rate and a Tesla
three phase charger on a dual charger Model S gives 110 km/hr for very little cost.
Ya gota be in a big hurry to spring for the CHAdeMO.

Let's say you have land for a 50kW PV array using 250W modules this would be a 10S 20P array. Control if no batteries would be to drop off parallel strings until charged. I dont know how the control strategy works with these Chademo DC controllers. Does anyone? when not in use we cannot export to the grid as it is a SLER system limited to about 20A max. A mains powered Chademo is impossible need three phase. SWER is single line earth return. S is series P is parallel.
