In March 2024, Allstar customers drew 264% more kWh of power from public chargers than they had 12 months earlier , while the amount of electricity used through home charging grew by 113%.

To give an idea of the scale of this remarkable growth - using a typical 60 kWh charge as the metric - that equates to over three times more vehicles charging on the road monthly than at the same time a year ago, and over twice as many at home. So who is leading this incredible charge to electrification? We’ve drilled into our data to find out.

Corporate fleets are at the forefront of electrification and are using far more public charging and home charging. From our data 36% of our corporate drivers now have a card for charging in public, while 21% also charge at home.

Unlike corporate, where both home and public charging have been adopted, among SMBs and all other company sectors, home charging is considerably lower, with only around 7-8 % doing this.

Why? Without further research it is hard to exactly pinpoint, but it may be that smaller companies lack the infrastructure to help with the fitting of charge points, or feel home reimbursement is too complicated.

Certainly, the cost and practical benefits of charging at home are yet to be unlocked by many businesses, especially with over 70% of vehicle owners surveyed by a government study having access to a private space such as a driveway or garage. Yet, as Allstar’s Charge pass solution has proved, it can be easy to simply and accurately pay for home charging.
