- To coincide with the announcement of the Recargo and Xatori merger, this infographic was created toshow:the growth of electric charging locations in recent yearsthe growing number of plug-in car purchases and an increase in peer to peer sharing of residential charging stations
- The data for the infographic was pulled from existing sources from Recargo, PlugShare and PluginCars.com.
- The data shows the by January 2011 there were close to 2,000 charging stations throughout the United States with various clusters in California and other states.The numbers more than tripled by January 2012 with just over 6,300 charging stations. The infographic visually shows the growth in numbers across the map.
- Vehicle charging stations to date (May 2013) have now increased to over 20,000 total. California is the state with the largest number of charging stations which include all public and residential.
- There are various types of plug-in vehiclecharging stations that provide various levels of charge. The Level 2 240 Volt charging stations have an average charging time of 60 minutes that will give a 25-30 mile range, while the DC Quick charging stations provide a 20 minute charge and give a 50-60 mile range.
- The Cars on the Road section of the infographic breaks down the volume of plug-in and electric vehicle growth from December 2010 through to projections by the end of 2013. For every vehicle represented in the graphic, there are 1,000 plug-in vehicles on the road. The greater the vehicle count on the road, the greater demand there is for charging locations and the data shows that growth over the past couple of years. The future is very promising for the plug-in vehicle industry!
- PlugSharing allows residential users to share their charging stations with other plug-in vehicle owners. The statistics over the years of the growth of peer-to-peer charging stations is very interesting. For the entire year of 2012 there were 4,158 residential locations in the PlugSharing database and already in the first 4 months of 2013 that number has been surpassed. In a society where we rely on technology and where your rarely speak with the guy next door, it’s encouraging to see this amount of growth in peer-to-peer plug sharing.
