Overview
Global EV Charging Station Market reached US$ 22.9 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 137.4 billion by 2030 growing with a CAGR of 25.3% during the forecast period 2023-2030. A significant chunk of the global demand for EV charging stations today is generated by the emerging nations of Asia-Pacific (China, Japan), where a lot of the global economic growth is concentrated.
EV charging stations are growing as the demand for environmentally friendly and advanced vehicles are trending in the market which are more sustainable and reliable. EV charging is found as a significant breakthrough in the automotive industry with the growing adoption of EVs globally. The development of robust and accessible EV charging infrastructure has become paramount.
In a significant move towards transformation as an integrated energy company, BP announced in Feb 2023 its plans to invest US$1 billion by 2030 in electric vehicle (EV) charge points across U.S. The investment includes a strategic partnership with Hertz, aiming to bring fast charging infrastructure to Hertz locations in several major cities.
The Asia-Pacific, holds the largest share of the electric vehicle charging station market. As per China Daily article, in 2022, China significantly expanded its EV charging infrastructure, nearly doubling the number of charging units, reaching a total of 5.2 million. It includes 1.8 million public charging facilities and 3.4 million private charging facilities.
Dynamics
Emerging Demand for EVs
Electric vehicles are an ongoing and emerging demand which is the major aspect in the growth for EV charging stations as by the end of 2022 about approx. 2.7 million EV charging stations are publicly working. Continuously increasing demand has led to increase in need for developing new EV charging station in all around the globe which provides an edge to innovate and develop large infrastructure system in large countries
Electric Vehicles fall under the category of environmentally friendly technology, which makes them attractive to both the government and private sector for investment in the autonomous sector. The focus on sustainability drives the development and creation of innovative EV charging stations, which contribute to the growth of the EV charging station market. The charging stations not only support the expansion of the EV infrastructure but also align with environmental goals, providing an edge in the market’s growth.
Increasing Demand for Convenient EV Charging Spurs Major Corporations to Expand Networks
People in modern world demands more convenience with transforming technology, big market companies are following these trends as providing the better charging facility like superfast charging systems, availability of stations at public places and parking’s so that people will access them easily. Businesses can access incentives and grants for installing EV charging stations, providing cost savings and financial benefits.
In April 2023, Walmart announced its plans to expand its electric vehicle (EV) fast-charging network by building dedicated charging stations at thousands of Walmart and Sam’s Club locations across United States. The expansion will be in addition to the existing nearly 1,300 EV fast-charging stations already installed at over 280 Walmart and Sam’s Club stores.
Increasing Power Demand
With the growing EVs in the market and comparatively less charging stations, there is an increased capacity load on the power grids which hampering the efficiency of these working stations and also high load on the stations reducing their operational life which could question the working load capacity of EV charging stations.
In addition, the government can only provide limited reserve energy to these stations, the demand fulfillment in bigger cities will be insufficient which are constraining the charging stations to fulfill the energy supply which leads the usage of more and more indirect non-renewable energy which is not a sustainable approach and can lead to long term market downfall.
Segment Analysis
The global EV charging station market is segmented based on type, connection phase, connectivity, infrastructure, application, end-user and region.
Charging via Connectors is the Fastest Segmentation in this Field
Charging via Connectors charging stations are the fastest among all three stations which are Off-Board Top-Down Pantograph, On-Board Top-Down Pantograph, Charging via Connectors phase supply, in which Charging via Connectors can provide up to the charging output of 350kW. The two types of Charging via Connectors chargers are available stationary and portable. The Charging via Connectors are the main charging stations available at highways for providing a better charging system for a longer journey.
Charging via Connectors charging stations are available publicly in streets, highways, near parking lots, which provides easy and flexible charging for the public. According to Tesla all their charging infrastructure is provided with superfast Charging via Connectors charging stations. Charging via Connectors charging stations are in their upgrading scenario currently, so that they can provide faster charging with power load of up to 400kW.
Geographical Penetration
Asia-Pacific Dominates EV Charging Station Market
The Asia-Pacific dominates the electric vehicle (EV) charging station market due to significant growth. Valued at approximately US$ 800 million in 2021, it is projected to surge to around US$ 115 billion by 2029 as per "wtw" article. Key drivers include government initiatives promoting EV adoption, the demand for fast-charging infrastructure and the increased deployment of EVs by shared mobility operators.
The impressive expansion has led insurers to reevaluate their exposure and terms regarding the associated risks. As EV charging stations proliferate, it’s essential to address the potential risks and implement suitable control measures and insurance strategies to mitigate them. The Asia-Pacific’s role as a global leader in the EV charging station market reflects its growing significance in the electric vehicle industry.
Competitive Landscape
The major global players in the market include Tesla Supercharger Network, Charging point, ABB limited, Siemens, BP Chargemaster, EVBox, Hyundai, Shells, Enel X, Electrify America are the top companies in the market.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
COVID-19 has majorly impacted the EV charging station market as the transportation was less and merely small numbers of vehicles were running on the roads. The EV sales reduced for a short term at times of COVID-19 which eventually affected the EV charging station market. As the demand and sales of EV became less in numbers, the EV infrastructure project got delayed in large countries like China, India and Japan.
As lockdowns were imposed, EV projects were delayed in western regions such as North America and Europe. Also, the expected recovery was rapid as focus increased on emission free environment transportation. Big EV players in the market like Tesla showcased faster and improved charging stations models which helped in boosting growth of EV charging station market in the post COVID era.
Russia-Ukraine War Analysis
The conflict between Russia and Ukraine impacts the EV charging station market all around the globe and majorly in Europe as the supply chain of raw material from Russia and Ukraine were almost stopped, Due to war the exporters were unable to trade the supply of raw material required for the infrastructure charging station due to which the EV charging station infrastructure were impacted.
Russia and Ukraine both countries’ ongoing EV infrastructure projects are directly affected due to this, mostly of Ukraine as their infrastructure is completely destroyed in major cities because of the war. Due to war both countries’ EV charging station market share went down in the global market.
AI Impact
AI creates a significant impact on EV charging stations as they are AI algorithms continuously implanted in the stations to improve their efficiency and performance in various aspects, As AI shows the dynamic pattern of billing according to time, grid capacity, charging output etc. which provides an easy and quick billing for the public.
AI provides dynamic factors like GPS tracking of stations, tracking of optimal locations for the building of infrastructure in needed locations, AI apps in mobiles will provide the navigation for charging points. It is also used in management of peak loads in different stations and analyzes the need of power at specific stations.
