IHS estimates largest number of EV charging stations to be in US, China, Japan and Germany
The number of electric vehicle charging stations is set to soar globally by 2020, supporting a shift in driving away from traditional petrol and diesel-fuelled vehicles, according to a new report from IHS, a leading global source of critical information and insight.
The report, compiled by IMS Research, recently acquired by IHS, estimates that the swing to electric vehicles (EVs) and plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEVs) will lead to the installation of 10.7 million charging stations globally by 2020, up from 135,000 in 2011.
