EV Charging networks outside of Tesla in the United States
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, there are almost 55,000 charging station locations with more than 141,000 Level 2 and Level 3 ports in the U.S. So which companies operate the biggest share of those locations and ports?
ChargePoint
With just over 31,000 locations and 56,000 total Level 2 and Level 3 ports, ChargePoint operates the single largest EV public charging network in the United States. But it’s important to note that the vast majority, 96%, of ChargePoint’s ports are Level 2 chargers.
Blink Charging
Blink recently acquired SemaConnect, a rival charging network, and now has more than 3,500 public charging locations in the U.S., with more than 11,000 connectors. Currently, it offers almost entirely Level 2 charging.
Electrify America
Electrify America may only have a little more than 800 station locations in the U.S., but at those stations it offers more than 3,700 total charging ports, and almost all are fast-charging ports.
EV Connect
EV Connect is another company with fewer stations packed with lots of ports: Its nearly 900 locations offer more than 3,200 total charging ports. But unlike Electrify America, most of EV Connect’s ports are Level 2 chargers.
Volta Charging
Volta has almost 1,400 charging locations and just over 3,000 ports in the United States. Almost all of Volta’s charging ports are Level 2.
EVgo
EVgo has a little more than 850 locations and just over 3,000 connectors. Like Electrify America, most of EVgo’s ports are Level 3 chargers.
Non-networked charging stations
It may surprise you to learn that there are more than 6,000 public charging locations — with almost 14,500 total ports — in the U.S. that are not affiliated with a charging network. Many of these have been installed by businesses and pay lots for the use of their customers or by various municipalities for public use.
