EVgo breaks ground on first public 350 kW charger in US

EVgo, operator of the largest US network of public electric vehicle (EV) fast charging stations, broke ground on the first 350 kW public charging station, located in Baker, California. The new chargers being installed are seven times faster than any fast chargers currently available and represent a new level of convenience for EV charging. EVgo expects the project to be completed by June 2017.

The Baker, California station will include four High-Power DC fast chargers capable of up to 350kW each, and can accommodate expansion of up to eight chargers in the future. The site will include a solar canopy to help power the chargers, as well as backup batteries. The High-Power chargers will be compatible with the CCS and CHAdeMO standards.
