National Renewable Energy Laboratory expects "sufficient energy from the electric grid may be needed to support 33 million EVs on the road by 2030. The majority (64%) of EV charging is estimated to take place at single family homes using L1 and L2 charging, which is typically the most cost-effective and convenient type of charging."DC fast charging infrastructure is expected to support 20% of EV charging needs."
