EV Charge Forward is an initiative focused on expanding electric vehicle charging infrastructure in underserved communities and charging desert regions. As electric vehicle adoption continues to grow, reliable charging access remains uneven across many urban neighborhoods, rural areas, and highway corridors.
This platform explores the challenges and opportunities involved in expanding EV charging infrastructure, including the development of community charging hubs, improved highway charging networks, and mobility solutions such as rideshare and electric rental fleets that depend on reliable charging access.
EV Charge Forward also serves as a space for collaboration, networking, and the exploration of funding opportunities that support EV infrastructure development. The initiative reflects the broader vision behind Switch EV Corporation, a company focused on developing infrastructure solutions designed to expand access to electric transportation while strengthening community mobility and accelerating the transition to clean energy transportation.
What We Focus On
- EV Charging Infrastructure
- Highway Charging Corridors
- Ride-Share Partnerships
- Electric Vehicle Rentals
- Grants and Funding Opportunities
- Clean Mobility and Public Health
Expanding EV Charging Along Major Highways
Reliable EV charging along major highways is essential for the continued growth of electric transportation. Many regions still have long stretches of roadway where drivers cannot easily find nearby charging stations. Expanding EV charging infrastructure along these travel corridors helps improve long-distance mobility, supports ride-share fleets transitioning to electric vehicles, and makes it easier for communities and businesses to participate in the clean transportation economy.
Working With Communities and Mobility Partners
Expanding electric mobility requires collaboration across industries and communities. Through its connection with Switch EV Corporation, EV Charge Forward explores opportunities to work with local communities, transportation planners, and mobility partners such as ride-share companies that are transitioning their fleets toward electric vehicles. These partnerships help bring charging infrastructure closer to where people live and travel while supporting cleaner transportation options for everyday mobility.
Understanding EV Charging Deserts
Electric vehicle adoption is growing rapidly across the United States, yet many communities still lack reliable access to EV charging stations. These areas are often referred to as charging deserts—locations where drivers may struggle to find nearby charging infrastructure.
Charging deserts can exist in urban neighborhoods, rural communities, and along long highway corridors where infrastructure development has not kept pace with the growth of electric vehicles.
Expanding charging infrastructure in these areas is essential for ensuring that the transition to electric transportation benefits all communities, supports clean air initiatives, and strengthens the future of sustainable mobility.
