A CPO may start with a smaller-scope network but quickly install new charge points in an expanding geographical footprint, which can cause performance issues and high maintenance costs — particularly if hampered by aging chargers. CPOs need to guarantee that EV chargers are always available and stable, operating 24/7 without fail.

Grid congestion is imminent If we look at the big picture, EV charging only accounts for about 4% of total demand for electricity; not something for utilities to be alarmed about. With over 123,000 public and semi-public charging stations in the Netherlands, the grid is already experiencing severe congestion.

There are technical reasons that contributed to faster repairs in Manhattan, but in general the neighborhoods that waited the longest to have their power restored tended to be poorer and less white. And it slowed urgent repair and maintenance of the power grid, with work crews having to practice social distancing due to the pandemic.

And vehicle-to-grid technology offers alternate revenue streams for its vehicles. This enables more efficiency in terms of grid connections and capital investment. So if you’re a consumer, or if you’re another business such as a rental car company, you start to have confidence that there’s infrastructure available for you to charge.
