EVgo Expands kWh Pricing to 20 States: A Major Shift in EV Charging Payment Model
EVgo, one of America's largest public fast charging networks, is expanding its pricing options to accommodate various drivers and enhance customer choice.
The company has implemented kilowatt-hour (kWh) pricing across 20 states, representing two-thirds of its network. This means drivers now pay based on electricity consumed rather than charging time.
