Three Questions Regarding Zoning and EV Charging Stations

By Anthony S. Guardino
August 01, 2024

It's no secret that electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming increasingly popular. According to the International Energy Agency, EVs accounted for approximately 18% of all car sales worldwide in 2023, a marked increase from 4% in 2020.

Closer to home, current estimates put the number of plug-in electric vehicles on U.S. roads at 5.4 million. And, this number will continue to grow as some major automakers have firm plans to stop selling gasoline-powered cars and trucks by 2040, and several states, have banned the sale of new gasoline-powered cars by 2035. The Union of Concerned Scientists projects that 50% of U.S. passenger car sales could be electric by 2030, and that EVs could make up 60% to 70% of the cars on U.S. roads by 2050.
