EV Sales Projected to Rise 16% in the US in 2025

Source: EnergyOne EV Charging:    Rho Motion projects a 16% growth in EV sales in the U.S. in 2025, a clear signal of the country’s advancing shift toward electric mobility, even amid the limited immediate effects of newly implemented policy changes under the Trump administration.  

The projected growth exemplifies the accelerating interest in electrified transportation. However, this shift brings significant challenges for planners, especially in addressing the U.S.’s unique geographic and demographic landscape

This projected surge in EV sales is exciting but poses significant infrastructure challenges. To support this growth, public and private stakeholders must focus on meeting the demands of new EV consumers without compromising reliability.

The electric vehicle (EV) revolution is no longer a concept of the future—its happening now. With the global EV market projected to grow between 6-7% annually from 2024 to 2029 and sales surging worldwide, the need for robust, accessible, and innovative EV charging infrastructure has never been more critical. 

This dual reality places U.S. consumers and planners at the center of a critical moment: one characterized by exciting growth in EV adoption but tempered by the need for strategic action in building infrastructure and policies that sustain that momentum for decades to come.

As EVs pave the way toward decarbonizing our transportation networks, a well-developed charging infrastructure is essential to catalyze adoption and ensure that EV owners experience the same convenience and reliability as traditional vehicle users. EnergyOne stands at the forefront of this transformation and is dedicated to shaping and accelerating this monumental shift in mobility. 

Understanding the Growing Need for EV Charging Infrastructure

More than half of today’s EV drivers currently rely on home charging to meet their needs. However, this trend is steadily shifting as demand grows. Public charging is expected to rise to accommodate the rapid expansion of EV ownership, especially in urban areas where home charging isn’t an option or for individuals frequently traveling long distances. 

By 2030, the U.S. alone will require a massive increase in chargers, including over one million at multi-unit dwellings to address the unique needs of apartment and condominium residents. Globally, the International Energy Agency (IEA) reported 2.7 million public charging points at the end of 2022, with a striking addition of 900,000 in that single year—an incredible indicator of the momentum in this space

Building for the Fast-Changing Needs of U.S. EV Consumers

As more Americans embrace EVs, the priorities of U.S. consumers are clear; faster charging, greater convenience, and better accessibility. The projected 16% growth in 2025 exemplifies the accelerating interest in electrified transportation across the nation. Yet this new era of mobility calls for significant planning, particularly as the U.S. faces unique geographic and demographic challenges that shape how infrastructure must evolve. 

From sprawling urban centers with complex transportation grids to rural regions with limited charger access, stakeholders must rethink how to align infrastructure with demand. EnergyOne recognizes that the key lies in developing adaptable solutions that prioritize accessibility for all—whether its addressing charging deserts or speeding up urban fast-charging solutions

Innovations Powering the Future of EV Charging

The rapid evolution of EV charging solutions is unlocking possibilities that go well beyond simple grid connections. Notable advancements include:

Smart Charging Systems: By dynamically managing charging speeds based on grid capacity and user needs, smart charging reduces costs and improves energy efficiency, helping to minimize the impact on local grids.
Plug & Charge Technology: A significant leap in user convenience, this approach enables EVs to automatically authenticate and initiate charging simply by being plugged in, bypassing traditional payment systems.
Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) Integration: This bidirectional approach enables EVs to act as energy sources, transferring stored power back to the grid during high demand. It’s an exciting step toward broader renewable energy storage.  

What is vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) Explained:  VTG integration enables EVs to store electricity and return unused energy to the grid, creating a symbiotic relationship between the vehicle and energy systems

These technologies, in addition to emerging features such as integrated renewable energy and stationary storage, also reduce associated infrastructure costs, paving the way for scalable solutions that are both environmentally friendly and economically practical.

Stay tuned on how EnergyOne’s commitment to ensuring the transformation is met not only with innovation but also with a thoughtful approach that equips today’s progress with the certainty of tomorrow. 

Together, we can overcome the challenges of rising consumer needs and ensure the transition to electrified transportation continues to thrive.

By focusing on accessible infrastructure, innovative technology, and educational outreach to American consumers, companies like EnergyOne EV Charging will not only support EV adoption but also lead the charge toward a cleaner, more sustainable future. 

Together, we can drive the EV revolution forward.

Note:  Keep your eye on hydrogen in around 10-15 years.  EnergyOne is excited about the future as it jointly invests in and plans its commercial hydrogen fueling strategies.
