EV Charging, how fast can you get?

Foffer
I have just seen this article about a 1.2MW EV charging point:

https://www.express.co.uk/life-style/cars/1123418/electric-car-charging-300-miles-range-15-minutes


How do you get this sort of power down a cable that you could easily pick up and plug in?  Where does the power come from?  What would this sort of charging rate do to the battery?  I hope all this stuff is properly shielded or I could see a few watches and phones suffering, bearing in mind that these items could easily be touching the cable.

    broadgage:

    1.2 Mw is easily available at 33 Kv and just about doable at 11 Kv.

     



    I really meant where is it all going to come from rather than how would it get there.  By 2040 all that energy that is today coming from petrol or diesel will have to change to electricity.  Will we only be able to go out on windy days? ?
