North America is behind Europe on EV charging infrastructure. Part of the reason is because North American EV sales are currently one third the volume of European EV sales. Another part of the reason is the lack of a common charging standard that all charging companies can build to. The new US charger subsidies require the use of CCS Type 1 Combo on the chargers. Hopefully this will be enough to get the last remaining non-CCS EV maker (Tesla) to switch to CCS on their North American chargers and their cars via adapters at first with CCS plugs and inlets to follow. With the certainty of a common charging standard more chargers will be built out more quickly.
