Energy Insights / Charts & Analysis / U.S. electricity demand for EVs has more than doubled in the past two years

U.S. electricity demand for EVs has more than doubled in the past two years. In 2024, EVs consumed 11.7 million megawatt-hours (Mwh) of electricity in the U.S., increasing 55% year-on-year. California had the highest electricity demand for EVs at 3.6 million Mwh, accounting for 31% of all U.S. EV-related electricity demand. While EV electricity demand has been growing rapidly, it still represents a very small portion of overall electricity demand. In 2024, EV-related electricity demand represented only 0.3% of total U.S. electricity sales and 1.5% of electricity sales in California.
