The growth of electric vehicles (EVs) in the U.S. has been rapid. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics Electric car sales have increased from 0.2 percent in 2011 to 4.6 percent in 2021, that’s an increase of 2400%! So, even if you don’t have one it’s likely you know someone who does. With this rise in EVs there is an increased demand for charging stations. Let us introduce you to Leviton and their smart EV charging stations. Leviton has been a leading manufacturer of electrical products for decades. Let’s outline some of the benefits of a Leviton charging station.
