    The growth of electric vehicles (EVs) and the behavior of EV drivers are increasing the demand for electric vehicle charging stations. This education course explains the different types of charging available and their suitable applications, and discusses the planning and installation considerations for electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE).
                        
        Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:
    
        - Identify the benefits of driving electric vehicles and state how industry trends are influencing sales of EVs.
- List three levels of charging stations, describe how they work and specify the applications they are best suited for.
- Recall the needs of EV drivers and charging station owners and explain how these needs can be met by networked stations.
- Discuss various site assessment and selection considerations and how they impact both the safety and cost of EVSE installations.
- Explain the importance of assessing electrical needs and availability, upgrading services, and planning for the future.
