Kempower: EV Charging Sites Need More Plugs, Not More Power

Kempower's white paper argues that EV infrastructure investment has been misdirected. The constraint isn't power availability—it's socket count. Operators can serve more vehicles with existing grid capacity by installing additional charging points rather than upgrading substations. This shifts capital allocation from expensive grid upgrades to cheaper connector multiplication, affecting how utilities, municipalities, and private operators should prioritize spending as EV adoption grows.
