sustainable future, and their continued adoption will rely on making the transition to electric a safe, reliable and cost-effective experience. But driving an EV isn鈥檛 like driving a traditional gas vehicle, and for any drivers looking to purchase the former, it鈥檒l be important to understand the nuances of charging on the move, whether it鈥檚 at home, at work, or along the curbside.</span></p> <p>Other common destinations for the electric vehicle charging infrastructure include transit corridors, commercial real estate sites like shopping malls and big-box retailers, and even restaurants and coffee shops: anywhere a driver might spend enough time to rustle up a charge, in other words. <em>(Continued below article links)</em></p> <hr /> <p><a href="https://cleantechnica.com/2021/04/21/charger-reliability-is-the-next-challenge-for-the-ev-industry/"><img decoding="async" class="bannerad aligncenter size-large wp-image-253641" src="https://cleantechnica.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Slide1.jpg" alt="" width="800" height="450" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://cleantechnica.com/2021/06/10/supporting-garage-orphans-ev-charging-for-apartment-dwellers/"><img decoding="async" class="bannerad aligncenter size-large wp-image-253643" src="https://cleantechnica.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Slide2-800x450-1.jpg" alt="Flo EV Charging Slide2" width="800" height="450" /></a></p> <p><a href="https://cleantechnica.com/2021/06/29/comotion-miami-flos-nathan-yang-reiterates-the-need-for-reliable-design-in-ev-charging/"><img decoding="async" class="bannerad aligncenter size-large wp-image-253644" src="https://cleantechnica.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Slide2-800x450-1.jpg" alt="Flo EV Charging Slide3" width="800" height="450" /></a></p> <hr /> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">While EV drivers can be certain to find a wide variety of chargers on-the-go, it鈥檚 true that most EV charging happens at home, often overnight. Because of this, one of the most important things we can do to ensure people transition to electric is to develop home charging stations that are durable and easy to use.聽</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Not all charging happens at home, though, and as EVs become increasingly common on North American roads, it鈥檒l be important to develop a robust and reliable public charging infrastructure network that lets drivers feel secure in their ability to travel most anywhere they please. This charging network should feature Level 2 chargers, which are聽 slower and typically mounted on a pedestal, a wall or in certain cases, </span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGbGP5u588Y" rel="nofollow sponsored"><span style="font-weight: 400;">grafted directly into a city鈥檚 existing infrastructure</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, and DC Fast Charging stations which, depending on their size, can usually charge an EV in less than thirty minutes. You can read more about the different charging levels </span><a href="https://cleantechnica.com/how-to-charge-an-electric-vehicle-101/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">here</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">.聽</span></p> <p style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-weight: 400;">There are many charging solutions providers who design, manufacture and manage EV infrastructure in North America. We鈥檒l be looking into some of these providers and their products in future articles, as well as looking at what makes for an enjoyable charging experience and how we can develop charging networks to best service the needs of today </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">and </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">tomorrow鈥檚 EV drivers.
