Electric vehicle (EV) charging network provider EVgo Inc. (EVgo) and General Motors (GM) have announced that they are expanding upon their work together and deploying 400 fast charging stalls across the US.
The stations have been fitted with 350kW fast chargers, lighting, canopies, pull-through stations and security cameras.
Most flagship stations are expected to feature up to 20 stalls and will be deployed coast to coast, including in metropolitan areas in states such as Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Michigan, New York and Texas.
Co-branded by EVgo and GM Energy, the flagship stations will be strategically placed near amenities including shopping, dining, coffee shops and other services.
The first flagship location is expected to open in 2025. The new stations will frequently leverage EVgo’s prefabrication approach to expedite construction timelines and offer modularity to ease future expansion.
President at EVgo Dennis Kish said: “The future of EV charging is larger stall count locations, high-power charging, and designing around features that customers love – such as pull-through access, canopies and convenient amenities.
“Through this next evolution of EVgo and GM’s esteemed collaboration, the future of EV charging is here.
“In order to be the charging provider of choice, we need to lead on customer satisfaction, and we will continue to innovate to deliver a charging experience that is convenient, comfortable, and dependable for current and future EV drivers.”
Achievements and innovations in EV charging infrastructure will be celebrated at the third annual CiTTi Awards, which will be held on 26 November 2024 at De Vere Grand Connaught Rooms in London.
