As background, in the world of EV charging, DC fast-charging stations, also known as Level 3 charging stations, generally charge an EV from 0 to 80 percent in 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the station type and vehicle.

The way I see it, the queuing issue breaks down into three buckets:

~ Not enough charging stations

~ Getting drivers on their way

~ Managing the queue

Let’s explore each point, review what exists as a solution and suggest some alternative routes.

Not enough charging stations
Deploying more DC fast-charging stations is one simple and obvious solution to the queuing problem. More fast-charging stations would lead to additional charging opportunities, which would then decrease the chance of overcrowding. As of January, 28,250 public DC fast-charging stations exist in the U.S.
