   As of May 2025, there were roughly 219,000 publicly available individual   
   charging ports at 77,000 EV charging stations across the United States,   
   the GAO report said.   
      
   Only 56,000 of these units are DC fast chargers that allow EV owners to   
   quickly charge their vehicles. The majority, 162,000 units, are Level 2   
   ports that take much longer to charge, the report said.   
      
   For instance, one hour of charging with a Level 2 port only delivers 25   
   miles of driving range, far lower than the 100 to 200 or more miles   
   delivered by a DC charger, GAO said.   
      
   Moreover, there are large cost differences between the two options.   
      
   “Level 2 chargers may cost about $900 to $3,000 per charging port to   
   purchase, and between about $700 and $4,000 per charging port to   
   install,” the report said.   
      
   In contrast, “the fastest DC fast charger can cost over $140,000 per   
   charging port to purchase, and more than $39,000 per charging port to   
   install, when between three and five charging ports are installed,”   
   according to the report.
