At this point, it’s clear that electric vehicles hold the key to the future of transportation. Governments all over the world are heavily incentivizing the use of EVs, and for the most part, it’s been working, as electric cars and motorcycles continue to soar in popularity. That being said, the transition to electric hasn’t been without its hitches. In the US, for example, there are thousands of EV chargers that are out of service pending repairs.
A recent article by The Verge goes into detail about this, stating that there are more than 6,000 EV chargers that are currently out of service. The data was sourced from the US government’s database, and represents around four percent of the total number of EV charging stations available. Indeed, this can be quite frustrating for riders and drivers of electric motorcycles and cars. Imagine having your GPS take you to a charger with just a few miles of range left, only for you to find out that the charger is out of service.
