Impact of COVID-19 on Global Solar-powered EV Charging Stations Market
COVID-19 pandemic had a dual impact on the global solar-powered EV charging stations market. On the one hand, the pandemic caused disruptions in the supply chain, reduced demand for EVs, and delayed new installations of charging infrastructure, which had a negative impact on the market growth. On the other hand, the effects of the pandemic also reignited the increasing focus on sustainability and renewable energy solutions, which created new opportunities for the market. During the pandemic, many countries implemented lockdowns and travel restrictions, which reduced the demand for transportation, including EVs. It resulted in lower demand for charging infrastructure and delayed new installations of charging stations. Additionally, disruptions in the supply chain caused by the pandemic led to delays in the delivery of components and equipment required for solar-powered EV charging stations. However, the pandemic also increased the focus on sustainability and renewable energy solutions as people became more aware of the impact of climate change. It has led to increasing investments in sustainable energy solutions, including solar-powered EV charging stations. The pandemic also accelerated the adoption of remote work and e-commerce, which increased the demand for last-mile delivery services, including EVs. It has created new growth opportunities for the solar-powered EV charging stations market as businesses invest in charging infrastructure for their EV fleets.
Global Solar-powered EV Charging Stations Market – By Level of Charging
Based on level of charging, the global solar-powered EV charging stations market is divided into Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 segments. The Level 2 charging segment holds the highest share in the global solar-powered EV charging stations market, as it is the most commonly used charging standard for AC charging stations. Level 2 charging operates at a voltage of 240V and can provide charging speeds of up to 20–25 miles of range per hour, which is suitable for most electric passenger cars. Level 2 charging stations are widely installed in residential areas, workplaces, and public locations such as shopping centers, airports, and hotels, making them easily accessible for EV owners. They are also less expensive to install compared to Level 3 DC fast charging stations, which require higher voltage and amperage. Moreover, Level 2 charging stations can be easily integrated with solar power systems, which allows them to harness renewable energy for EV charging. It is in line with the growing demand for sustainable and eco-friendly charging solutions. As the adoption of EVs continues to grow, the Level 2 charging segment is expected to remain the dominant segment in the global solar-powered EV charging stations market during the period in analysis.
