The number of EVs on the road is growing. Recent figures show the EV market share closing in on ten percent nationally. EV infrastructure is improving to meet the demand. The number of EV charging points in America increased by 29 percent nationwide in 2023. But is that increase happening quickly enough?
Different states have different needs for EV charging. An interesting metric for how successful states have been at providing EV infrastructure is to look at their EVs per charging point ratio. The more registered EVs a state has, the more public charging points it needs. And many states – even avowedly EV-friendly ones – may be far from where they need to be with EV charging infrastructure.
