ChargePoint and South Coast Air Quality Management District Surpass 90 EV Charger Installations Across Southern California

CAMPBELL, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ChargePoint (NYSE: CHPT), a global leader in electric vehicle (EV) charging solutions, today announced that the company has enabled over 90 charging ports for the South Coast Air Quality Management District (South Coast AQMD), the regulatory agency responsible for improving air quality in Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties. The deployments provide employees and the public with convenient and reliable EV charging solutions.

“Together with South Coast AQMD, ChargePoint is deploying accessible and reliable charging options for communities within America’s largest EV market,” said Rick Wilmer, CEO at ChargePoint. “Having enabled more than 21 billion electric miles to date, ChargePoint shares South Coast AQMD’s values and directly supports its mission to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve air quality.”

The project replaced outdated chargers with 55 new, Level 2 ChargePoint units capable of serving 94 vehicles simultaneously, including multiple ChargePoint CP6000 charging stations. The CP6000 delivers 60% faster charging than a typical Level 2 station and features ChargePoint’s Omni Port connector system, allowing any modern EV to charge without an adapter.

“Expanding charging access for both staff and the public helps address range anxiety and closes infrastructure gaps, which remain key barriers to widespread EV adoption,” said Wayne Nastri, South Coast AQMD Executive Officer. “This is a critical step toward reducing transportation-related emissions. The transportation sector accounts for about 40% of California's greenhouse gases, with light-duty vehicles representing the largest share at 25-30% statewide.”

All stations are managed through the ChargePoint Platform, ChargePoint’s next-generation, flexible software solution designed to provide real-time insights, remotely monitor performance to ensure functionality, and respond to customer needs. Features like intelligent station monitoring and control give South Coast AQMD enhanced visibility into station utilization and performance, and ChargePoint’s innovative Waitlist enables South Coast AQMD employees to easily join a virtual queue, receiving notifications when a charger becomes available via the ChargePoint mobile app.

Enhanced accessibility features of South Coast AQMD’s charging sites include ADA-compliant spacing, signage, and charger placement, to ensure equitable access for all users. Details and locations of the South Coast AQMD ChargePoint locations can be found via the ChargePoint mobile app.
