The Edison Electric Institute estimates some 9.6 million charge points will be needed in the U.S. by the end of the decade to support an estimated 18.7 million EVs on the road. As of April 2023, there were 136,513 charging ports at 53,764 public and private stations, according to the U.S. Department of Energy's Alternative Fuels Data Center. This massive increase in EV charging infrastructure will have important implications for the grid, and present stakeholders with significant challenges - and opportunities.

Albina Iljasov, Head of Europe at XCHARGE, highlights key EV adoption factors: Education: Companies need guidance on electrification benefits; Collaboration: Working together for an effective transition; Accessible Infrastructure: Building user-friendly charging networks; Albina's insights pave the way for a greener future...
