California Governor Gavin Newsom announced on Saturday, April 27, via social media that all brands of electric vehicles (EVs) are now able to use the state's network of Tesla charging stations.

According to the governor, this takes the state's total number of public charging stations to over 105,000. The number includes 10,000 fast-charging posts, which can fully charge an electric battery in minutes.

California Now Has One EV Fast-Charging Post for Every Five Gas Stations

Newsom boasted that California now has one fast-charging station for EVs for every five gas stations. To charge certain electric cars that are not Teslas, you will need to utilize an adapter.

According to California Energy Commission figures, ZEVs accounted for 25% of new car sales in the state last year, with 1,846,874 units sold thus far.

In addition to the 105,000 public or shared private electric vehicle chargers, more than 500,000 chargers have been placed in houses around the state.

According to the Veloz EV Market Report, California accounts for 34% of new ZEV sales in the United States, making it a major player in the worldwide EV market, placing fourth after China, the United States, and Germany.

California has already invested $1.8 billion on EV charging and hydrogen refueling targets, and the latest $1.9 billion pledge reinforces that investment. Newsom's office has announced intentions to use these funds to install 40,000 new public EV chargers and improve ZEV infrastructure around the state.

San Francisco County is home to 2,416 electric car charging stations, according to a dashboard maintained by the California Energy Commission, as reported by SFGATE. A total of 1,045 are open to the public, while 1,371 are "shared private," meaning that access to them is limited to certain drivers.

The expansion coincides with California's efforts to discourage drivers from using vehicles powered by fossil fuel, such as gasoline. With an executive order issued by Newsom in 2020, the sale of new gas-powered vehicles and smaller trucks in California will be phased out by 2035.
