Only a measly 1% of US retailers offer EV charging stations even though they come with significant benefits and government incentives, according to Consumer Reports.
The independent research and consumer advocacy watchdog’s first-of-its-kind study, released today, evaluates the availability of EV charging stations and the commitments made by companies to provide charging at 75 of the largest national and regional retailers across the US.
Consumer Reports analyzed over 270,000 store locations across major retail categories, including big box stores, convenience stores, grocery stores, drugstores, department stores, and discount stores. EV charging is available on average at 1 out of every 14 big box store locations, 1 out of every 15 grocery stores, and 1 out of every 40 department stores.
I have been a proud and involved member of our fleet community for decades and I do know a thing or two about our industry. Here’s #1: If at all possible, you must attend NAFA Fleet Management Association’s Annual Institute & Expo -- April 22-24 in beautiful San Antonio, Texas!
