Highest/Lowest Profitable DCFC Locations

Every shape is one electric utility. The color shows what a fast-charging station running at its state’s average utilization would pay for power there. Data sourced directly from the utilities, with EV rates applied where available.

Method — effective $/kWh (energy + demand + fixed charges per published schedule) from RightSite’s 5/10/15% load-factor model, interpolated linearly in 1/LF to each state’s implied energy load factor: observed statewide fast-charging time-utilization × 0.45 average-power factor, clamped to 2.5–15%. AK, MT, ND, SD, VT and ME sit at the clamp floor — true economics there are worse than shown. Statewide averages; individual sites vary widely. Territories — HIFLD Electric Retail Service Territories (2025 federal archive), cleaned; multi-state utilities clipped to the tariff’s state; overlaps draw smallest-on-top; where two ranked schedules share a territory the better-ranked colors it. Utilization — Paren, “State of the Industry: US EV Fast Charging,” Q2 2026, average DCFC utilization by state. Rates modeled July–August 2026; confirm against the current tariff before committing capital. © 2026 RightSite, LLC · rightsite.net
