Tom Bloor, MD at evec, discusses expansion in the EV industry and the current barriers standing in the way of widespread EV adoption. In recent years, the EV industry has experienced a surge in growth, driven by technological advancements, supportive legislation, and increased consumer demand for sustainable transportation solutions. The government’s ambitious plans for electric vehicle adoption are underpinned by a commitment to bolstering charging infrastructure and ensuring widespread access to EVs. These initiatives drive growth in the EV industry and pave the way for a more sustainable future. #EVIndustry #EVAdoption #ElectricVehicles #EVCharging Click the link below to discover more ⬇ https://bit.ly/3vZ1uDV

Launched at the EV SUMMIT this week, new research by ChargeUK has revealed that today's UK EV charging network can power half a billion miles every day 🔋 That's enough power for every EV in the UK to drive 580 miles a day - 25 times the average daily car journey and further than the distance from London to Aberdeen. If the current growth rate continues, the rollout of public chargers will stay ahead of EV adoption, with over 300,000 public charge points expected in the UK by 2030.

California installed 24,202 electric-vehicle chargers in the first half of 2024, bringing the total to more than 150,000. California has surpassed 150,000 public and shared private chargers installed statewide, including 137,648 “Level 2” chargers and 14,708 fast chargers. In addition to the public network, the state estimates that more than 500,000 private home chargers are installed across the state. Of the 48,000 chargers added to the data set since the end of 2023, 24,202 new chargers were installed in the first half of 2024. The remaining 23,142 chargers were installed before 2024 and identified through new data sources, according to the California Energy Commission (CEC). This announcement by Governor Gavin Newsom comes weeks after California posted its second- highest ever market share in zero-emission vehicle (ZEV) sales. “When it comes to zero-emission vehicle infrastructure, California has no peers,” said Newsom. “The state is all-in on clean transportation, dedicating unprecedented investments to supercharge our transition. We’re building a bigger, better charging network – faster.” The CEC approved more than $1 billion in funding this year for EV charging and hydrogen refueling projects for cars, trucks, and buses, including $390 million for electric school bus charging. The state is also expected to receive more than $380 million from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act for building out chargers.

The rollout of enough public EV chargepoints to satisfy the expected adoption of 11 million EVs by the end of this decade poses one of the greatest infrastructural challenges of our time. Mark Winn, head of EV strategy at SMS plc, discusses the landscape of public EV chargepoints in the UK and what needs to be done to enhance infrastructure. #ElectricVehicles #EvCharging #PublicCharging #EVs https://bit.ly/43hwvPu

Updated forecasts of vehicle charging needs, grid impacts and costs for all vehicle segments was released alongside the federal government’s ZEVIP announcement. Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure for Canada report outlines a baseline scenario that calls for a need of 234,500 public charging ports (22,000 DCFC + 212,500 L2 chargers) by 2030.  https://lnkd.in/gsGh5vuX  Elocity #EV #EVcharger
