Comparing Electric Charging Networks (Video)
For the true road warrior it’s not just about the range of the vehicle. The availability of DC fast charging stations is also a critical factor.

I drive a short-range EV long distances. It takes more time, more days and nights, but it works. I drive what might have been a one day trip in a Tesla or a gasoline car in two or three days. I have done one particular route 5 times, relying on Electrify America stations and a few EVgo stations.
Everybody is talking about the world’s largest solar tree because it fits right into the emerging solar-plus-agriculture movement.
There they go again: BP aims to juice EV market by installing ultra fast, battery-boosted EV charging stations at convenience stores.
Editor’s note: We have written about GM’s new partnership with EVgo to add 2,700 EV fast charging stations across the United States in the next 5 years a couple of times. However, this piece below offers some useful context to the news by adding information (charts!) on the current EV fast charging landscape across the country.
General Motors and EVgo are partnering to add 2,700 fast chargers to 40 urban areas all across America within 5 years.
A new GM-EVgo mashup enlists EV drivers in the renewable energy race with plans for 2,700 new public fast chargers across the US.
The New Jersey Turnpike Authority Commissioners sealed a deal that will increase the total number of EV chargers on the Turnpike from 20 to 76 — in particular, these will be V3 Tesla Superchargers.
As electric vehicle sales in the US grow beyond early adopters and Tesla owners, one of the growing challenges for EV owners is finding compatible and available charging stations — especially on road trips or areas where the owner infrequently travels.
Public fast charging network operator EVgo has rolled out the first Tesla connectors ever to be deployed on a non-Tesla fast charging network in the US. The new program will initially see Tesla charging adapters added to all of EVgo’s fast charging stations in the City of San Francisco with a broader rollout across the US following in 2020.
