Future of CV Depot Charging Market by Vehicle Type (eLCV, eMCV, eHCV and eBuses), Charger Type (AC and DC), and Region (Asia Pacific, North America, Europe) - Global Forecast to 2030
[90 Pages Report] The CV depot charging market size for chargers of new vehicles was USD 4.7 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach USD 30.7 billion in 2030, witnessing a CAGR of 28.2% from 2024 to 2030. In addition, the global number of chargers for new vehicles in depot setting is expected to reach 1.1 million units in 2030, whereas as the global number of chargers for Electric Commercial Vehicles (ECV) parc in depot setting is forecasted to reach 5.3 million units. Further, within the regional market Asia-Pacific region accounted for more than half of the market share in both new vehicles and ECV parc segment. While the AC chargers held the major share in ECV parc in depot setting segment, the DC chargers will hold the largest share in new vehicle in depot segment. The report also includes the analysis of number of chargers for new vehicles in depot setting, number of chargers for ECV parc in depot setting, cost of chargers (including installation cost) for new vehicles in depot setting, energy demands and cost of energy.
Dedicated to achieving zero emission targets, the OEMs have planned to invest over USD 500 Billion by 2030 for EV production facilities. In addition, several countries such as Norway, Germany, UK, US, India and China have set goals to convert their public transportation buses fleets to electric from ICE. Owing to this, the demand for depot charging has significantly raised. Several new players have entered the market to grab the first mover opportunity in the depot charging segment. Moreover, OEMs and depot charging solution providers have attempted to regulate the EV battery charging supply chain to further cut down the raw material, manufacturing and maintenance of the batteries.
Globally there were over 2.7 million public charging points by the end of 2022, of which around a million charging points were installed in 2022 alone. This includes both residential as well as public chargers. Further, it is estimated that over one million new charging points were installed by the end of 2023. In addition, efforts were made to strategically monitise the charging business to cater the fleet operators. For instance, in 2022, Siemens partnered with Electrify America to provide depot charging solutions for electric buses in North America.

Market Dynamics:
Driver: Rapid adoption of commercial electric vehicles for public transporatation
The EV segment registered a strong growth of 30-40% in 2023 due growing preference towards clean transportation and government support through incentives. In addition, the governments in Norway, Germany, UK, US, India, China and other countries have set goals to convert their public transportation buses fleets in electric from ICE. Moreover, the fleet operators of commercial vehicles are adopting the ECV. This has led to growth of ECV depot charging market across the globe. However, the electrification in commercial vehicles is challenged by factors such as range limitations, inadequate charging infrastructure and vehicle downtime.
The EV charging infrastructure is significantly growing to cater the needs of the consumers. In 2023, over a million new EV charging points were installed around the world. These charging points consisted of both slow chargers as well as fast chargers. For instance, in 2023, close to 16,000 charging points were installed in the UK, taking the number of total charging points over 53,000; wherein, more than 4,500 were fast charging points. In addition, successful pilot projects were carried out for wireless charging points in Japan, China, Germany, US and other countries in Europe. A collective of over $50 billion was announced by the governments and EV charging solution providers in 2023. The sum of the money will be gradually invested to setup charging points across the world.
The years 2022 and 2023 saw change in charging technology of cars wherein ultra-fast chargers have been introduced in the market to enhance the speed of charging the electric vehicles. OEMs such as Ford and Tesla have partnered with the charging infrastructure solution providers to cater the ultra-fast charging needs. Moreover, the hardware and software manufacturers have come up with different business models to monetize the commercial electric vehicles depot charging market.
Restraint: Slow speed of AC chargers
The type of chargers installed at the depot charging vary from AC to DC at various levels. The AC chargers are low costing chargers however they require a lot of time to charge the battery of the EV. On the contrary, the DC type of chargers has the capability of fast charging, but are costlier. The depot charging setup has a mix installation of AC and DC chargers. Further, the light commercial vehicles such as cars require fast charging setup as they need minimum charging downtime. The heavy commercial vehicles such as buses and trucks have large batteries and also need considerable fast charging speed even if they are set for overnight charging. Therefore the slow chargers in the depot charging station increase the downtime of the vehicles acting as an restraining factor to the growth of ECV depot charging market.
Opportunity: Growing adoption of fast chargers
The major player in depot charging segment are leaning towards installing DC fast chargers in the new setups, along with replacing the older AC slow chargers. For instance, in January 2023, EVgo started a new program ReNew, wherein they help in identifying the old and broken charging points and upgrade or repair them to reduce the downtime of the vehicles entering the charging depot. Moreover, market leaders in the US such as ChargePoint and Electrify America provide high quality DC fast chargers that can be easily installed and monetized using softwares and payment applications.
Challenge: Availability of electric supply
The automotive market has witnessed numerous innovations and technological advancements in the EV sector. However, the total energy demand will be very high once the commercial EVs start rolling in the market at higher scale. The estimated energy required for depot charging of new vehicles will be 109.6 TWh, whereas the total energy demand for ECV parc under depot charging setting will be 387.6 TWh by 2030. This energy requirement in future is very high and energy shortage may become a major issue for depot charging market.
By Vehicle type, eLCV segment is estimated to account for the largest market during the forecast period
More than 75% of the ECV market share under depot setting is accounted for by the eLCV category. In the vehicle type segment, the eMCV and eHCV will see considerable growth and a rise in share. The ebuses proportion will, however, decrease in comparison to 2023. Additionally, from 2023 to 2030, the market for eMCV and eHCV combined will growth at CAGR of 6%. This increase is anticipated because depot charging infrastructure is being adopted more frequently and because electric vehicles will be more affordable than conventional ICE commercial vehicles..
“Asia Pacific holds the major share in the market.”
With a market share of more than 50% for new EV sales, the Asia Pacific region dominates the market. The production and export of automobiles in China is the main cause of this. In terms of both car production and sales, the Chinese market is the largest in the world. In addition, the Chinese market has expanded dramatically since the COVID suspension. The production industry in China has intensified due to the economic recovery. The European market is one of the main EV sales expansion strategies used by Chinese manufacturers. Furthermore, the expansion of the ECV industry in the Asian region is greatly aided by nations like South Korea, Singapore, and India..
Key Market Players
The top performing key players in 2023 were ABB, Blink, Bosch, bp pulse, ChargePoint, EVgo, Heliox, Kempower, Shell Recharge, Siemens, Wallbox and several others. These EV charging solution providing companies are focused on EV charging technology development and investing into the charging ecosystem to ensure a sustainable supply chain. These companies adopted new product launches, acquisitions, partnerships, collaborations, and other key strategies to gain traction in the depot charging market.
