Electrify America will boost the number of electric vehicle chargers in North America to 10,000 by 2025. The companies, which are part of Volkswagen Group, already had plans in place to expand its footprint to 800 charging stations and 3,500 individual chargers the U.S. alone by the end of 2021.
Electrify Canada, the company’s arm for Canadian operations, has previously announced plans for 32 charging stations. This new plan ups that commitment to 100 stations and 500 chargers over the next half-decade.
“We have decided to double our current charging infrastructure in North America over the next four years to help meet the need for the rapid growth expected of electric vehicles by virtually all the auto manufacturers, and to help make EV adoption more accessible and attractive than ever.” said Giovanni Palazzo, president and chief executive officer, Electrify America.
“We are making this commitment to support the plans by major automakers and the U.S. and Canadian governments to help the transformation to an electric mobility transportation system.”
