The global charging as a service market size is estimated to reach USD 1,239.5 million by 2030, registering a CAGR of 25.0% from 2025 to 2030, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The growth of the charging-as-a-service industry can be attributed to factors such as accessibility, ease of use, and a lower upfront cost of buying and installing a charging station. This encourages overall electric vehicle usage to improve environmental and public health.
Countries across the world are encouraging the adoption of electric vehicles, and many nations have participated in initiatives to reduce carbon emissions significantly till 2030 or 2050. Charging-as-a-service plays a crucial role in driving EV adoption by providing effective charging infrastructure and completing the switch from Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) vehicles to electric vehicles. Governments and key market players worldwide are investing heavily in the charging-as-a-service business model to foster the adoption of electric vehicles, which bodes well for the market’s growth.
Businesses, public spaces, and industries are realizing the benefits of deploying charging-as-a-service at their premises. The EV charging as a service business model helps companies offer their clients and employees a comfortable charging spot to help them retain their clientele and improve employee satisfaction. Moreover, by renting out their spaces for the CaaS business model, businesses, industries, land, and even residential area owners can generate additional revenue while benefiting the environment and society. These benefits are fostering service adoption in the market.
During the wake of the pandemic, the sales of electric vehicles did reduce, which affected the CaaS market adversely. However, the COVID-19 outbreak has highlighted the vulnerabilities and shortcomings of economies and business practices, leading governments and citizens to take more sustainable and environmentally aware initiatives. This scenario has pushed the adoption of EVs and CaaS business models, as the world recovers from the pitfalls of the pandemic.
