Guaranteeing Uptime for Fast EV Charging Stations - let us have working chargers.

The Issue

EV drivers deserve a fast charging network they can rely on.

Right now, too many electric vehicle (EV) owners are facing broken, offline, or poorly maintained fast chargers — turning everyday drives into frustrating, stressful experiences. These outages can leave people stranded, disrupt commutes, delay deliveries, and hurt those without access to home charging. Rideshare drivers, commercial fleets, and rural EV drivers are especially vulnerable.

If this problem continues unchecked, public trust in EV infrastructure will erode. People will hesitate to switch from gas-powered cars, which slows down the transition to clean energy and undermines urgent climate goals. But if we act now to set clear standards for reliability, we can boost EV adoption and ensure a smooth, accessible driving experience for all.

We call on [insert target] to enforce operational uptime guarantees for fast EV charging stations nationwide, including:

Minimum 97% uptime standards for public fast chargers
Rapid repair protocols to restore service within 24–48 hours
Real-time performance dashboards for transparency
Customer support and service credits for affected users
Charger redundancy in high-traffic locations
EV charging should be consistent, dependable, and trustworthy. Let’s make sure every driver can charge with confidence.

Sign this petition to demand accountability and action now — because a cleaner future depends on a reliable EV charging network.
