Rising fuel prices and environmental concerns drive the demand for commercial electric vehicles and infrastructure in the EV Charging market. As fuel costs continue to increase, commercial fleet operators are looking to reduce operating expenses through electrification. Electric vehicles allow businesses to avoid volatile fuel prices and lower their total cost of ownership over time. Additionally, many countries and local governments are implementing policies to curb greenhouse gas emissions from the transportation sector. This is putting pressure on fleet owners to transition to electric vehicles.
The demand for electric trucks and vans is increasing as a result. However, a lack of adequate charging infrastructure can limit the adoption of electric fleets. Companies and governments are investing heavily in building a network of public and private charging stations to support more widespread electrification. For instance, in the UK, the total number of EV charging stations has increased by 1,915 stations since January 2022, an increase of 7%. In this expansion, 338 more rapid chargers were added, showing an expansion of 7%, according to GovUK, 2022. This expansion was carried out throughout the region to make EV charging stations accessible in remote areas. The charging infrastructure will help alleviate range and availability concerns as it expands. More widespread availability of EV Charging solutions can further accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles for commercial applications.
