Heavy-duty EVs are moving closer to widespread deployment, but the grid infrastructure needed to charge them at scale is still catching up.

As fleets begin planning for Class 8 electric trucks and megawatt charging systems, utilities face a new set of challenges around capacity, interconnection, distribution upgrades, project timelines, safety and cost. For some charging depots, the electrical infrastructure required to support high-power charging could be as significant as the charging equipment itself.

A new Pulse Report from Endeavor Business Intelligence examines the infrastructure challenges surrounding heavy-duty EV charging and what they could mean for utilities and other stakeholders. The report looks at the biggest barriers to megawatt charging, the time required to secure needed electrical capacity, infrastructure costs beyond the charger and strategies for reducing strain on the grid.
