Just 10 years ago, it wasn’t all that common to see electric cars on the road. In fact, just 120,000 electric cars were sold worldwide in 2012 according to IEA’s 2022 Global EV Outlook report. Last year that number reached a new high: 6.6 million. And that record is on track to be broken again, as 2 million electric cars have been sold in just the first quarter of 2022. That’s a 75% increase over Q1 2021.
With all that momentum, the global rise in gas prices, and President Biden’s goal for electric vehicles to have a 50% market share by 2030, it’s clear that electric vehicles are here to stay. So too is the need for efficient and effective charging stations to keep them on the road. As a company with a rich history of electrical product innovation, Light Efficient Design (LED) has entered the EV charger market with a new line of charging stations called breezEV that is raising the standard for how charging stations look and function. These Level 2 chargers are ideal for multi-unit housing, municipal, and retail applications.
