EVgo announced new plans to roll out NACS connectors to meet consumer demand. Following its successful 2025 pilot, during which the Company installed nearly 100 NACS connectors across 22 major metropolitan areas, EVgo plans to accelerate deployment to reach more than 500 NACS connectors installed by the end of this year. "Increasing the share of NACS connectors on EVgo's high-power network means more EV drivers will have access to public fast charging near their everyday amenities like grocery stores, shopping and restaurants," said Badar Khan, CEO of EVgo. "We are already seeing an increase in NACS throughput on our network, and with more than 35 NACS models expected on American roads by the end of the year, we expect that to grow as we add more connectors throughout the country."
