The entry of a new player in the charging network segment in the U.S. will be seen as a welcome move by EV users across the country. This is hardly surprising, given how common it has become for them to wait for extended periods of time before they could access an open charging slot. Additionally, with a sharp rise in the sale of EVs, there is no denying that the country needs a lot more charging stations in the future, which is precisely the problem the new consortium aims to address.
Like many other EV charging stations in existence today, the upcoming charging network will have amenities such as restrooms, food service, and retail operations. Each charging station will also have multiple high-powered fast chargers that can fill an EV’s batteries to about 80% in 30 minutes or less. Additionally, overhead canopies will be available at all stations, where possible, to provide shade and protection from the elements.
What remains to be seen is to the length of time it would take for the consortium to reach its current target of installing 30,000 plus charging points. Tesla currently has over 17,000 Superchargers in operation in the U.S., and has recently announced plans to open to a wide range of competitor EVs rather than limit those stations to drivers of the automaker’s own models.
