Sustainability

EVgo is committed to protecting our environment by making it easy for drivers to go electric. With over 950 fast charging locations across more than 35 states, nearly 145+ million people in the U.S. live within 10 miles of an EVgo charger. Together, we’re helping to clean up the air and tackle climate change, one charge at a time.

For every kilowatt-hour (kWh) consumed on our network, EVgo purchases a corresponding kWh renewable energy credit (REC) from an accredited REC supplier.

When a charger reaches the end of its useful life, EVgo works with Homeboy Recycling, an R2 certified electronics recycler and a B Corp™, to reuse parts wherever possible, recycle valuable materials, and reduce waste.

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 with a disproportionate pollution burden. This commitment to underserved communities supports EV drivers and shared mobility options, helping make clean transportation accessible to all.
