EVgo Previews 750 kW Fast Charger Built With Delta Electronics

The company says the high‑power system will future‑proof its network for faster passenger models and electric trucks by smoothing grid demand with dynamic power sharing.

Overview

  • EVgo publicly previewed a next‑generation DC fast charging system on Tuesday, Sept. 29, 2026, and said prototypes are being tested at its Innovation Lab in El Segundo with support from Delta Electronics.
  • The system is designed to deliver up to 750 kilowatts to a stall and to shift available power in real time so each connected vehicle receives the most it can accept.
  • EVgo plans to reveal final designs and begin deployments in 2027, a delay from an earlier projection of rollouts in the second half of 2026.
  • Planned user and hardware changes include North American Charging Standard (NACS) connectors, easier‑to‑handle cables, and a touchless payment interface drawn from EVgo usage data.
  • No passenger EVs sold in the U.S. today accept 750 kW, so EVgo frames the rollout as future‑proofing and as especially useful for larger battery vehicles such as electric trucks while it leverages its nearly 2,000‑station national footprint.
