Perhaps the best answer is to match the value of services provided with the fees charged, a graduated fee schedule similar to this--
Daily Site Fees:
Tent campers (15 amp service): $25/day
Smaller RVs (30 amp): $35/day
Larger RVs (50 amp): $40/day
Sites charging EVs (30 and 50 amp sites only): $100/day
Penalty for charging EVs without approval: $200/day
The "jump" in price from 30 amp (2880 watts continuous) and 50 amp (9600 watts continuous) is not great enough. If (for round figures) it costs $0.14 per kwh, then a 30 amp may consume about 69 kwh or $9.66, where as the 50 amp may consume 230 kwh or $32.20 per 24 hour period.
I do know that in the worst of the winter I was consuming 130 kwh per day.
