The zero-emission medium- and heavy-duty vehicle (ZE-MHDV) market in the United States continues to grow, with nearly 1,400 units sold during the first half of 2024. As this market develops, the charging network will have to expand to keep pace with the growing energy needs of ZE-MHDVs on the road. There has already been considerable investment in charging infrastructure for these vehicles: According to one estimate, as of early 2024, $30 billion in public, private, and utility financing had been announced or made available to build charging infrastructure for ZE-MHDVs (Lepre, 2024). Continued investment and supportive policies have contributed to the development of ZE-MHDV markets in first-mover states like California, and there are dozens of large-scale charging infrastructure projects currently underway or planned across the country.
