BOULDER, Colo.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–A new report from Navigant

Research examines the global market for plug-in electric vehicle

(PEV) charging equipment sales and charging services, with forecasts

segmented by region, residential and commercial market, and technology

type, through 2025.

During the next few years, the market for electric vehicle charging will

experience a transitional phase, as affordable long-range battery

electric vehicles (BEVs) are introduced; premium automakers roll out

their PEV offerings; and utilities increasingly engage with this market.

Meanwhile, governments are looking to promote PEV charging, especially

in Europe and China, which seeks to build on the recent success of its

PEV market. Click

to tweet: According to a new report from @NavigantRSRCH,

the global market for electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) is

expected to grow from around 425,000 units in 2016 to 2.5 million in

2025.

“Entities looking to serve this market need to understand the coming

changes, as they will affect the types of chargers in demand as well as

the business model for operating EV chargers,” says Lisa Jerram,

principal research analyst with Navigant Research. “High-power direct

current (DC) fast chargers will be increasingly in demand, as will

connected Level 2 chargers that can be easily managed by a range of end

users, including utilities.”

As today’s charging market continues to shift from serving early

adopters of PEVs to a broader customer base, charging companies will

need to respond to and recognize new market opportunities, according to

the report. Demand for fast charging is expected to grow, encouragement

of multi-unit dwellings and workplaces to adopt charging will become a

focus, and issues such as interoperability that hamper the market will

need to be addressed.

The report, Electric

Vehicle Charging Services, analyzes the global market for PEV

charging equipment sales and charging services. The study covers the

major market drivers for the residential and commercial charging

segments and analyzes the potential uptake of alternating current (AC),

direct current (DC), and wireless EVSE. Global market forecasts for

charging equipment sales, segmented by region, charger type, and

residential, workplace, public, and private markets, extend through

2025. The report also examines the potential to secure revenue via

public charging services and increased electricity demand, as well as

the competitive landscape for charging companies. An Executive Summary

of the report is available for free download on the Navigant

Research website.
