Electric Vehicle Charging Equipment in Europe - Residential, Commercial, DC Fast Charge, and Wireless Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment: Market Analysis and Forecasts
Electric Vehicle Charging Equipment in Europe - Residential, Commercial, DC Fast Charge, and Wireless Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment: Market Analysis and Forecasts
Across Europe, plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) are being delivered by the
thousands each month. The EV charging infrastructure that enables vehicles to
charge at home, at the workplace, and in public spaces is simultaneously being
rolled out utilizing a variety of deployment models and several different
technology configurations. By 2020, Pike Research forecasts that more than 2.9
million PEVs will be on Europe's roadways and that the region will have more
than 4.1 million EV charging stations installed.
The top five European markets for EV supply equipment (EVSE) will be Germany,
France, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and Italy, with this group
representing more than 60% of the total market. The dynamics of demand for
EVSE will be different in Europe than in other parts of the world; for
example, residential charging equipment adoption will be slower than in North
America as more EV owners will opt to use base power from a wall outlet or
will rely primarily on commercial charging stations.
This Pike Research report examines key market trends and drivers for the
deployment of electric vehicle charging equipment across Europe. The study
includes a comprehensive analysis of business models and demand factors,
technology and standards issues, and the strategies of key industry players
within the region. Detailed market forecasts are provided for 19 European
countries and seven key market segments, including projections for equipment
sales and revenue through 2020.

Press Release
Pike Research: Electric Vehicle Charging Equipment Sales in Europe to Reach Nearly $1.3 Billion by 2020
July 17th, 2012
Global Information Inc. would like to present a new market research report, "Electric Vehicle Charging Equipment in Europe - Residential, Commercial, DC Fast Charge, and Wireless Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment: Market Analysis and Forecasts" by Navigant Research (formerly Pike Research).
Across Europe, multiple technologies are being utilized for EV charging. Complex regulations governing the sale of electricity vary from country to country, and several different payment models and electricity rate structures apply to EV charging services, further complicating the process of paying for vehicle charging. At the same time, the absence of a single alternating current (AC) EV charging connector standard has hampered the deployment of EV charging infrastructure. Despite these challenges, the market for electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) will grow rapidly in Europe over the remainder of the decade. According to a new report from Pike Research, EVSE revenue in Europe will grow from € 72 million ($90 million) in 2012 to more than € 1 billion ($1.27 billion) by 2020.
"European sales of charging equipment have lagged North America because of a lack of standards and slower than expected EV sales," says research director John Gartner. "However, Pike Research expects that in a few years, consensus will be reached by auto manufacturers in the region on both AC and DC charging equipment, and market demand will accelerate rapidly beginning in 2015."
Gartner adds that the largest market for both PEVs and charging equipment will be Germany, which will represent 23% of all EV charging systems sold through 2020.
One key emerging leader in the European EVSE market is the alliance between French automaker Renault and Nissan, of Japan. With its ZOE battery electric vehicle, Renault is introducing both a vehicle and the supporting infrastructure technology and deployment. Renault designed the ZOE BEV so that a corresponding fast charging station would be inexpensive to build. Pike Researchs analysis indicates that this low-cost charger has the potential to change the economics of commercial EV charging.
Pike Researchs report, "Electric Vehicle Charging Equipment in Europe", examines key market trends and drivers for the deployment of electric vehicle charging equipment across Europe. The study includes a comprehensive analysis of business models and demand factors, technology and standards issues, and the strategies of key industry players within the region. Detailed market forecasts are provided for 19 European countries and seven key market segments, including projections for equipment sales and revenue through 2020.
