Charging Infrastructure
Sources: charging counts from NREL Alternative Fuels Data Center , public and operational as of Oct 2026. Registration counts from AFDC light-duty vehicle registration data (derived from Experian Information Solutions, through 2025, rounded to the nearest 100, battery-electric only — plug-in hybrids excluded). A location is one charging site; a port is one plug a single vehicle connects to. One location usually has several ports.
