Electric Vehicle Fast Charging Expanding in Chicago

| November 18, 2014

eVgoNRG eVgo, is expanding its electric vehicle (EV) charging offerings to the Chicago market in partnership with Chicago-based JNS Holdings Corp.

“A robust charging station network is critical to broad deployment of electric vehicles,” said Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel.

In the coming months, eVgo will also add additional DC fast charging sites to the Chicagoland area to further improve the charging coverage and make it a truly comprehensive network.

“DC fast chargers are the fastest EV chargers on the market today and can charge an EV in less than 30 minutes,” said Arun Banskota, President of NRG eVgo.

This fast charging network supports eVgo’s partnership with Nissan to expand the “No Charge to Charge” program to the Chicago market.

Already in 12 markets, “No Charge to Charge” provides Nissan LEAF buyers with complimentary 24-month access to the eVgo network, as well as other EV charging networks, using a single EZ-Charge access car. With over 160 fast charge stations currently installed, eVgo is building a comprehensive network of fast-charging sites in the U.S. as well as the infrastructure to support charging at residences and workplaces.
