Public charging service refers to a system or infrastructure that provides charging facilities for electric vehicles (EVs) in public locations. These services allow EV owners to recharge their vehicle batteries when they are away from home or other private charging points. Public charging services are typically available in convenient locations such as parking lots, highways, and public areas.
The primary types in the public charging service market are direct current (DC) charging and alternating current (AC) charging. DC charging refers to a method where direct current electricity is supplied directly to the EV battery, bypassing the vehicle's onboard AC-to-DC converter. Applications of this service include battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), with end users spanning both residential and commercial sectors.

The public charging service market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $20.13 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 34.9%. The growth during the forecast period can be attributed to rising consumer awareness of environmental issues, growing demand to mitigate the effects of global warming, the expansion of charging networks, increased integration with renewable energy, and the rise of workplace charging solutions. Key trends in the forecast period include technological advancements, innovations in charging technology, progress in electric mobility, development of advanced charging stations with multiple ports, and a shift toward smart charging.
The increasing adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) is expected to drive the growth of the public charging service market. EVs are vehicles that operate using an electric motor powered by energy stored in rechargeable batteries or other energy storage systems. The rise in electric vehicle adoption is driven by factors such as growing environmental concerns, government incentives, technological advancements, lower operating costs, improved charging infrastructure, higher fuel prices, and investments from automakers. Public charging services are vital for electric vehicles, as they provide widespread access to charging stations, ensuring drivers can conveniently recharge their vehicles while on the go. For example, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA), in 2023, electric car sales increased by 3.5 million units compared to 2022, reflecting a 35% year-on-year growth. As a result, the increasing adoption of electric vehicles is propelling the growth of the public charging service market.
