U.S. government may need more than 100,000 charging stations - testimony 4/5/22
As of March 2022, federal agencies own about 1,100 EV chargers while President Biden signed an executive order in December calling for the end of the government purchasing ICE vehicles by 2035. This gap between potential EVs in the federal fleet and charging infrastructure leads to the conclusion from a government watchdog that the government may need over 100,000 chargers. Less than .3% of the federal fleet was electric as of 2020, putting it at 1,777 of 657,000 vehicles being EVs. The GSA said that as of March 10th federal agencies have ordered 1,854 more zero-emission vehicles.
