As EVs become more common, Statista predicts that the worldwide charging infrastructure market, which was valued at US$44.58 billion in 2024, will increase tenfold by 2034 to reach US$482.79 billion.
EV adoption continues to grow, indicating a significant change as people choose more ecologically friendly modes of transportation.
There were 2.7 million public charging stations globally by 2022.
This growth is being further accelerated by initiatives like the US Department of Transportation’s US$2.5 billion charging infrastructure funding program.
Charging companies need to constantly innovate in order to stay competitive.
