Electric vehicle fast chargers are growing strongly in the United States. Thanks in large part to Joe Biden’s $5 billion National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure program, the number of public EV fast chargers in the country grew by 7.6% in the first quarter, to nearly 8,200 stations. That’s from about 600 new fast charging stations going online, about a quarter of them being Tesla Supercharging stations.

Thanks in part to large convenience store networks Buc-ee’s and Wawa committing to EV charging support and thanks in part to the geographically broad NEVI program, states not as far along in the EV revolution and more neglected when it comes to EV charging infrastructure got a boost last quarter. Indiana got 16 new EV fast-charging stations, Missouri and Tennessee got 13 each, and Alabama got 11. Together, Buc-ee’s and Wawa added 19 new stations in the US — 10 at Buc-ee’s and 9 at Wawas.
