The study involved four major activities in estimating the current size of the EV charging station market. Exhaustive secondary research was done to collect information on the market, the peer market, and the child markets. The next step was to validate these findings and assumptions and size them with industry experts across value chains through primary research. The top-down and bottom-up approaches were employed to estimate the complete market size. Thereafter, market breakdown and data triangulation processes were used to estimate the market size of segments and subsegments.
Secondary Research
In the secondary research process, various secondary sources such as company annual reports/presentations, press releases, industry association publications [for example, European Alternative Fuels Observatory (EAFO), European Automobile Manufacturers' Association (ACEA), China Association of Automobile Manufacturers (CAAM), International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (OICA), Electrical Vehicle Charging Association (EVCA), National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), International Energy Association (IEA)], articles, directories, technical handbooks, trade websites, technical articles, and databases (for example, Marklines, and Factiva) have been used to identify and collect information useful for an extensive commercial study of the global EV charging station market.
Primary Research
Extensive primary research was conducted after acquiring an understanding of the EV charging station market scenario through secondary research. Several primary interviews were conducted with market experts from both the demand (OEMs) and supply sides (EV charging station manufacturers, service providers, and component manufacturers) across major regions: North America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia Pacific, and the Rest of the World. Approximately 24% and 76% of primary interviews were conducted from the demand and supply sides, respectively. Primary data was collected through questionnaires, emails, and telephonic interviews.
In the canvassing of primaries, various departments within organizations, such as sales, operations, and marketing, were covered to provide a holistic viewpoint in the report. After interacting with industry experts, brief sessions were conducted with highly experienced independent consultants to reinforce the findings from primaries. This, along with in-house subject matter experts’ opinions, led to the findings described in the remainder of this report.
Note 1: Others include sales managers, marketing managers, and product managers.
Note 2: Tier 1 companies’ revenues are more than USD 10 billion; tier 2 companies’ revenues range between USD 1 and 10 billion; and tier 3 companies’ revenues range between USD 500 million and USD 1 billion.

Data Triangulation
After arriving at the overall market size—using the market size estimation processes as explained above—the market was split into several segments and subsegments. To complete the overall market engineering process and arrive at the exact statistics of each market segment and subsegment, data triangulation and market breakdown procedures were employed, wherever applicable. The data was triangulated by studying various factors and trends from both the demand and supply sides.
Market Definition
EV charging station is electrical equipment used to charge plug-in electric vehicles. This equipment can charge an electric vehicle in 6-20 hours for normal charging (Level 1 & Level 2 charging) and approximately 15-60 minutes for fast/supercharging (Level 3 charging). EVs have different charging requirements and can be used with the required chargers. They allow the conversion of current for the vehicle to be easily charged and set up at homes, semi-public places, public charging stations, and a portable charging system.
