Skycharger, a Skyview Ventures company, announced that its West Coast Highway Corridor Direct Current Fast Charging (DCFC) network has achieved a remarkable milestone of 500,000 charging sessions. This achievement underscores the rapid acceleration of electric vehicle (EV) adoption and highlights Skycharger’s role in advancing sustainable transportation across the West Coast.
Since 2021, Skycharger’s network has delivered substantial environmental benefits, enabling over 41 million miles of EV travel and helping drivers avoid 12,650 metric tons of CO2 emissions. The network’s reliability and accessibility have ensured public confidence in EV infrastructure, driving adoption across California and beyond.
Additionally, Skycharger actively engages with local communities, supporting workforce development initiatives and collaborating with nonprofits to enhance EV charging infrastructure’s economic and social benefits.
The West Coast Highway Corridor DCFC network, initially developed under the ChargePoint brand and acquired and upgraded by Skycharger in 2021, has experienced exponential growth in use. The increase from 200,000 charging sessions in April 2023 to 500,000 today underscores the rapid rise in EV adoption. It showcases the impact of Skycharger’s upgrades, featuring enhanced charging speeds and increased station reliability.
In 2024, Skycharger expanded its network to serve more communities, adding new stations, and debuting its first Skycharger-branded stations.
Looking ahead, Skycharger plans to expand its West Coast Highway Corridor DCFC network even further, with a goal of doubling its charging capacity in California by the end of 2025. Skycharger has also been selected to receive the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) funding to support the expansion of its California sites.
Additionally, the company is extending its footprint into neighboring states. All future stations will carry the Skycharger brand. As part of its vision, the company is actively pursuing new partnerships and exploring advanced technologies to continue delivering best-in-class charging solutions.
