In the Nullabor desert in Australia...
...where there is no electrical grid...
...and it was from more than 6 years ago...
...when it was being done as an experiment...
...and it was running on bio-diesel:
'Jon Edwards, a retired engineer who developed the roadhouseâs BiÃfil EV
charger, told AAP FactCheck in an email that âthe unit started, ran
perfectly on waste oil, fully charging my carâ when he visited in
November 2022. Edwards confirmed that âfor the majority of weather it
runs on the waste fryer oil.â'
Today:
'The stations feature a solar roof canopy, an integrated battery storage
system to store the excess solar, and a diesel backup generator.'

That's at the El Paso airport and the generator is for emergencies...
...for the buildings, not the charge points:
'Contacted by AFP, a spokesperson for Blink, the company listed on the
EV charging station, said: "The charging station is not powered by the
diesel generator or connected to it.
"To our knowledge, the generator is for emergency lighting and other
amenities for the parking lot only and is designed for backup power for
the terminal. The generator is not in operation unless there is an
emergency, and the main power is off."'

Again, for emergencies, just like you can have a can of gas delivered to
you if you run out.
