Improving the EV charging experience: A workshop with industry stakeholders

Thursday, October 27, 2022 | 1:30 pm to 4:00 pm (PST)

What is needed and how do we improve the U.S. public charging experience to ensure all drivers and fleets have access to reliable and user-friendly EV charging infrastructure?

The EV industry is moving beyond early adopters, with more drivers and fleets going electric. But inconsistent and unreliable charging encounters can negatively impact the user experience, adding to the barriers of broader EV adoption. This is one reason the Biden-Harris Administration has proposed standards designed to build a national network of reliable, user-friendly and accessible EV chargers.

How are automotive makers, government agencies, charging providers and other industry players working together to address major barriers? What is realistic for the industry to achieve? And what innovative solutions can we collectively work on to address common challenges?

As part of this workshop, held in partnership with the ICF Climate Center you’ll have the opportunity to apply your industry experience and collaborate with other leaders to understand the current landscape and identify solutions to ultimately improve EV charging for the long term.
