Chart Of The Week: The Number Of Advanced Fueling Stations Continues To Climb (lots more charts on this webpage, they add weekly)



The number of advanced fuel vehicle stations is climbing nationwide as governments and private companies continue to make sizable investments in infrastructure and automakers introduce a fuller range of new and affordable models. Between 2013 and 2017, the number of public and private stations increased 131 percent, a net addition of approximately 35,600 nationwide. Ninety-five percent of the new additions have been in the electric charging segment, which continues to see rapid growth compared to other advanced transportation fuels. Advanced fueling station infrastructure can be a catalyst for consumers to adopt new technologies, and can ease concerns over range and practicality. Despite the sharp rise in the past six years, more stations are needed to meet future demand growth. At a hearing Thursday before the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, Center for Automotive Research President and CEO Carla Bailo echoed this point, saying “Consumers are unlikely to buy a vehicle without a developed refueling infrastructure, and the private sector is not likely to build the infrastructure before there is a critical mass of EVs in use.”
