Furthermore, the automobile industry experts are also backing up these schemes by providing rebates & plans for pushing people toward the e-mobility trend. Therefore, the car manufacturers are also planning & gearing up to make relevant changes in EVs to meet the future demand for EVs. For instance, Volvo is targeting to obtain 50% of vehicle sales from their electric vehicles segment by 2025. These proactive efforts & policies are destined to result in the growth of EV charging infrastructure & the installation of public & private charging stations in countries across the globe.
Additionally, the growing demand for electric vehicles has spurred the expansion of direct current (DC) fast-charging infrastructure. DC fast-charging infrastructure is rapidly increasing with the demand for high power & less time-consuming charging systems. Therefore, several companies, including Tritium Pty Ltd & ABB, are developing ultra-high-power charging systems to support new electric vehicles such as electric passenger cars, electric buses, and electric trucks, which can be charged much faster than conventional DC fast chargers. Further, the rising demand for electric vehicles in countries, including China, the US, and India, as well as the growing investment in the development of charging infrastructure, has led to the worldwide demand for electric vehicles.
Impact of COVID-19 on the Global Electric Vehicle Fast-Charging System Market
The COVID-19 pandemic had an adverse impact on the global automotive industry due to a steep decline in the vehicle demand from the end-user as well as from the manufacturer’s end. In addition, the supply chain disruption caused by the low export of Chinese automotive parts & huge manufacturing disruptions across Europe & the shutting down of assembly plants in the US were other major reasons for the low demand for EV fast chargers. This placed extreme pressure on the global automotive industry as many automotive manufacturers to cut down their investment plans & the government also delayed spending on infrastructure development, including vehicle charging infrastructure. This resulted in slowdown in the installation of EV fast-charging systems around the globe.
Furthermore, in 2021, the automotive sector witnessed an incline in the demand due to the post-pandemic recovery, along with relaxations in the mobility restrictions. Moreover, the government's growing attention to the automotive sector & the rising companies’ investment in the manufacturing of electric vehicles is expected to dominate the market growth in the years 2022-2027.
Market Segmentation
Based on the Application:
Among the two, the Public application experienced notable market growth during the historical period. Public EV fast-charging systems are open to the public & are operated for numerous commercial purposes. Most of the public charging stations are operated by the network operators, such as EVgo, Blink, TGOOD Global Ltd., EVBox, and ChargePoint Inc. In addition, several charger manufacturers, as well as the governments of various countries such as the US, Germany, and China, are actively investing in the installation of public EV fast-charging systems cohesively, resulting in an increased demand for the fast-charging system.
Moreover, the dense Chinese cities, such as Beijing & Hefei, have a vast network of public fast-charging stations compared to the major EV markets of Europe & the US. For instance, China planned to deploy 12,000 stations to swap battery stations & 500,000 publicly accessible chargers by 2020, which would create numerous opportunities for the charger manufacturers to increase their overall market share.
Based on Vehicle Type
Of them all, Passenger Vehicles experienced significant market growth during 2017-21. The factors responsible for the growth are an expanding fleet of passenger EVs compared to electric light-commercial vehicles & heavy commercial vehicles. Additionally, the increasing sales of battery electric passenger vehicles across the globe are anticipated to boost the Electronic Vehicle Fast Charging market growth. Moreover, the import duty for a gasoline-fueled vehicle is around 128% to 827%, while the Total Tax Incidence (TTI) of EVs is about 59%, which is nearly half of the lowest tax slab as compared to other gasoline-fueled vehicles.
Therefore, the burgeoning trend toward the emissions-free motoring, increasing Research & Development (R&D) towards EV designing, charging & battery technology, etc., are expected to surge the overall sales of passenger cars, which would emerge as an opportunity for fast-charging stations.
