In Illinois, there’s widespread agreement that drivers need access to more charging stations if the state is going to electrify its transportation system. The question of who owns them — and who profits from them — is still a work in progress. Great variety of businesses will be interested to get involved - utilities, private developers are all expected to play a role in building out the state’s electric vehicle infrastructure, but recent comments submitted to state regulators reveal unresolved questions about what those roles might look like.

The Illinois Commerce Commission recently solicited stakeholder comments on potential issues, challenges and opportunities related to electric vehicles in the state. Access to charging infrastructure was one of the most critical issues that needs to be addressed, stakeholders said. 

Drivers need it in many places and for different purposes: home, work, public parking garages, highway rest stops, for hours at a time or a quick recharge during a road trip. The demand keeps expanding further for public transit and other heavy-duty vehicles but the question about who will participate in process of growing still pends.
