ChargePoint Expands North American Software Platform to Connect 3rd Party Makes of EV Chargers

Campbell, Calif., June 18, 2024 - ChargePoint (NYSE: CHPT), a leading provider of networked charging solutions for electric vehicles (EVs), is expanding its North American software offering to manage hardware of other makes and models, beginning with chargers made by LG. Customers will be able to operate the LG hardware of their choice with ChargePoint’s industry-leading software, a modular, intuitive platform built for today’s charging needs.

“ChargePoint remains focused on delivering integrated, networked charging solutions that enable a seamless charging experience for drivers and site hosts,” said Rich Mohr, SVP, Americas at ChargePoint. “By partnering with additional charging hardware manufacturers, we are enabling more customers to use the ChargePoint software platform to power their EV charging programs, delivering a world-class driver experience.”

ChargePoint hardware, software, and services have long been the EV charging solutions of choice for customers across all commercial segments. ChargePoint is enabling more flexibility for these customers as they build and scale their EV charging programs. Customers can choose to deploy bundled hardware and software from ChargePoint or hardware from a third-party manufacturer to be managed by their existing ChargePoint software.

Hardware manufacturers can now partner with the company to offer "ChargePoint Ready" hardware, stations that are pre-configured to operate on the ChargePoint platform, and are sold with a full suite of support services available. As a first commercial offering within this new, flexible approach, ChargePoint today announced a strategic partnership with LG to develop commercial charging solutions. Additionally, hardware manufacturers can work with ChargePoint to test and certify their existing stations as ChargePoint compatible. Owners of these stations can purchase network integration kits that enable them to connect and manage their charging program with ChargePoint software. ChargePoint expects the LG commercial charging solution to be available for sale in its third fiscal quarter of this year.

By opening new opportunities for customers and charger manufacturers to leverage its software, ChargePoint aims to help accelerate broader adoption of EV charging solutions, powered by leading software that enables complete control and detailed insights.
