EV Charger Installation vs. Public Charging — What to Know Before You Buy

Thinking about buying an electric vehicle? You’re not alone. More homeowners in Massachusetts are switching to EVs — but many quickly realize that public charging stations don’t cut it.

Here’s what to consider before relying on public EV chargers:

• Limited availability
Public stations can be full when you need them most. Home charging eliminates wait times.

• Slower charging speeds
Level 2 home chargers can fully recharge your vehicle overnight — many public stations can’t.

• Convenience and cost savings
No more detours to charge. Plus, utility incentives and rebates make home installations more affordable than ever.

• Permanent value
Installing an EV charger adds long-term resale value to your home and shows you're future-ready.
