Strategic Initiatives
Growth programs, investments, and their expected impact
Accelerating the rollout of North American Charging Standard (NACS / SAE J3400) connectors across the network. EVgo plans to deploy over 400 new NACS-equipped stalls in 2026 to natively serve Tesla and other non-CCS vehicles.
Expected impact: Effectively doubles EVgo's addressable market by capturing the native NACS vehicle segment, which represents approximately 57% of U.S. EVs in operation.
Developing and deploying a next-generation distributed charging system in collaboration with Delta Electronics.
Expected impact: Improves deployment speed, enhances network reliability, and optimizes capital efficiency for future high-power fast-charging hubs.
Expanding the retail-based fast-charging footprint by building at least 150 fast-charging stalls per year at Kroger Family of Stores locations.
Expected impact: Drives high utilization rates by placing high-power chargers (up to 16 stalls per site) at high-traffic grocery locations where shoppers spend under an hour.
