Charger-to-EV ratio in Maine

How well the charging build-out is keeping pace with EV adoption. Lower numbers = more chargers per EV (better).

EVs per port
9.2
EVs per L2 port
15
EVs per DCFC port
23.4
BEVs per DCFC port
12

Numbers reflect publicly-accessible charging only (private/workplace/fleet sites excluded). Port counts are individual L2 or DCFC ports — a site with 8 DCFC ports contributes 8, not 1. EV count is BEV+PHEV combined; BEV-only is shown separately. Registration data is the latest annual AFDC/Experian snapshot. Compare all states →
