Atlanta Among the Most Electric-Vehicle Friendly

The Atlanta-Sandy Springs-Alpharetta metropolitan area ranks 21^st nationally for EV-friendliness, mainly prompted by a strong EV ownership mindset, the overall favorable infrastructure, the growing availability of charging stations in rental buildings and affordable fuel costs.

Moreover, Georgia is the 11^th best state for electric car uptake with more than 47,600 registered EVs.

I’ve asked Doug Ressler – a business intelligence manager at Yardi Matrix, a research firm and our sister company – to offer some insights on the main concerns around driving an electric car:

”The electric car movement is gaining momentum, but it isn’t without its challenges. The high price of an EV – although brought down by incentives now – range and charging stations still pose some problems. However, with the expansion of the charging network – including in apartment buildings – and the gradual lowering of the EV price, buying and using an EV can become mainstream in the foreseeable future. […]By 2045, EVs are projected to dominate most of the car market. Moreover, by 2050, EVs could make up about 90% of the car market.”
