This line chart tracks two key metrics over time: total US EV charging stations (green) and DC fast charging ports (blue). Both lines show consistent upward trends, with DC fast charging growing at a faster rate as federal and state programs prioritize highway corridor buildout. The filled areas under each line highlight the scale of growth. Explore more data at the EV charging data hub.
How Fast Is the US Adding Charging Stations?
The US added 14,681 charging stations between July 2025 and June 2026, representing 20.5% growth. DC fast charger deployment has been even more aggressive, adding 16,982 ports (30.2% growth) as automakers and charging providers race to address range anxiety. The federal NEVI program is funding stations every 50 miles along designated Alternative Fuel Corridors. Browse the US EV charging station directory to find stations in your area.
What Is Driving Charging Infrastructure Expansion?
Several forces are accelerating deployment. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law's NEVI Formula Program provides $5 billion to states for EV charging along highways. The Inflation Reduction Act offers a 30% tax credit (up to $100,000) for commercial charger installation. State-level ZEV mandates in California and 17 following states are boosting EV sales, which in turn drives charging demand. Private investment from automakers, utilities, and charging startups is also surging.
