In this case, significantly lower sales volume for electric vehicles would be expected, association added

GlobalData: Global electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure to double to 11 million public charging stations by 2030 (2026: 6.9 million, 2027: 8.1 million, 2028: 9.1 million, 2029: 10 million), growing at compound annual growth rate of 13.6% from 5.8 million chargers in 2025 (+9.3%, 2024: 5.3 million). Most immediate impact of larger EV fleet is increased electricity demand, as more vehicles plug in for charging and add new load to power system. To handle this growth, utilities will need to strengthen grid by upgrading transformers, substations, and distribution feeders. Deploying smarter grid solutions such as smart charging and Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technologies – can help align charging with grid conditions, reduce peak demand, support grid stability, and enable greater integration of renewable energy, Shiledar said
