http://www.electricvehiclechat.com/sites/default/files/pge-truck-620.jpgPG&E is going beyond the electrification of its fleet. In an unprecedented move, it will own 25,000 charging stations.

The service area of a single utility company, Pacific Gas and Electric in Northern and Central California, represents one in five of every plug-in cars in the United States. The utility company, hoping to leverage the desire of its customers for EVs, today asked state regulators for permission to build an estimated 25,000 public charging stations. This step puts into place the largest deployment of EV charging infrastructure in the country.
From 2011 to 2013, the Department Energy, through The EV Project, installed more than 13,000 Level 2 residential and commercial charging stations, and approximately 100 DC Quick Chargers. The PG&E program is nearly double the size of the previous effort, and it would exclusively focus on a single utility’s service area.
