Accelerating the Transition to Clean Energy
EVgo is committed to protecting our environment by making it as easy as possible for drivers to go electric. With 800+ stations across the country, more than 130 million people in the US live within a 10 mile drive of an EVgo fast charger. Together, we’re helping to clean up the air and tackle climate change, one charge at a time.
EVgo Charging, Powered by 100% Renewable Energy
In 2019, EVgo became the first public EV fast charging network in the U.S. to be powered by 100% renewable energy. We contract with our energy suppliers and renewable energy certificate (REC) partners to ensure that each gigawatt-hour delivered on our fast charging network financially supports an operating renewable energy generator in the U.S.
282 Million Electric Miles
EVgo has powered 282 million electric miles to date — which is more than 11,000 times around the earth!
EVgo Drivers Have Reduced the U.S. Carbon Footprint by 114,000 Metric Tons
That's like planting 1.8 million trees!
Promoting Sustainable Communities
EVgo’s Communities Charging for Change program promotes sustainable communities through public education and expanded access to EV fast charging. In 2019, EVgo opened seven fast charging stations in San Diego, Los Angeles, and Bay Area communities that bear a disproportionate pollution burden. This commitment to underserved communities supports both EV drivers and shared mobility options, helping to make clean transportation accessible to all.
