ChargePoint reaches 1 million charging ports amid global expansion

ChargePoint's CEO, Rick Wilmer, emphasized the importance of accessible and reliable charging infrastructure for EVs.

EV charging network ChargePoint recently achieved a significant milestone in its global expansion, reaching 1 million charging ports across North America and Europe. Since its founding in 2007, ChargePoint has been a veteran in the EV charging space, delivering billions of miles to EV drivers worldwide.

ChargePoint’s growth has been fueled by several key partnerships and initiatives this year. The company provided charging piles to Mercedes-Benz’s first U.S. charging hub and began rolling out NACS adapters to support Tesla owners. Additionally, ChargePoint established partnerships with Airbnb for guest EV charging and signed an agreement with Porsche.

In terms of network milestones, ChargePoint reached 1 million quarterly active users in the fall of 2023 and recently tallied 1 million available EV charging ports across its entire network. These ports have delivered over 10 billion all-electric miles to drivers, with 4 billion of those miles in the last year alone, highlighting the network’s rapid expansion as EV adoption and demand for public charging grow.

ChargePoint’s CEO, Rick Wilmer, emphasized the importance of accessible and reliable charging infrastructure for electric vehicles. He highlighted the company’s commitment to delivering a world-class driver experience through its network of over one million ports, which has enabled over ten billion electric miles to be driven.

ChargePoint also shared impressive environmental impact statistics. The company estimates that its customers have avoided more than 410 million gallons of gasoline and over 2.2 million metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions by using its chargers.

As always, EV drivers can access ChargePoint chargers via its mobile app, where they can locate, activate, and pay for a session, ensuring seamless and convenient charging experiences wherever they are.
