Maryland has more EV chargers than ever – but they’re not everywhere
Maryland has seen a significant increase in electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure, with nearly 1,700 charging stations across the state, but 45% of zip codes still lack public charging stations. The state's climate goals aim to have over 1.1 million registered EV drivers by 2030 and all new passenger vehicles sold to be zero-emission by 2035.
Maryland's electric vehicle charging infrastructure has grown significantly, with nearly 1,700 charging stations across the state for over 150,000 registered EVs. However, 45% of Maryland zip codes do not have a public charging station, posing a challenge to the state's climate goals. The state aims to have over 1.1 million registered EV drivers by 2030 and all new passenger vehicles sold to be zero-emission by 2035. As of now, there are around 5,400 EV charging ports in Maryland, with the majority being Level 2 ports. Maryland has nearly 14 electric vehicles per public port, placing it 22nd nationally. The uneven distribution of charging infrastructure may hinder EV adoption, particularly for those living in apartment buildings or without off-street parking.
