According to the index, 80% of the best states for EV charging were in the Northeastern U.S., with two of the top 10 states being on the West coast. Even though there has been negligible growth this quarter, the total number of public charge points in the US increased by a whopping 32% since 2023. That said, there’s still a tremendous need for expansion.
Some of the states that scored the highest in the study, like California and Vermont, shouldn’t come as a surprise given their robust EV adoption rates. Then there are others. Delaware surged, jumping more than 23 points thanks to an increase in higher level charging stations and solid increases in EV sales. Washington, DC ranked second, thanks to proactive policies, financial incentives, and strategic investments in expanding charging access—especially in underserved communities. These efforts support the city’s push toward electrification and its broader climate goals.
