bp plc, a British oil and gas company based in London, England, announced the opening of its electric vehicle charging station at its headquarters in Houston. This will be the first bp pulse EV charging Gigahub in the United States.
Fast EV Chargers in Strategic Sites
As per CSP Daily News, the new EV charging station will have 24 high-speed charging points with Tritium 150-kilowatt direct current (DC) fast chargers. These will be integrated with the BP linked to the pulse app so users can easily find the site and access real-time charging availability. The app will also allow easy connection to WiFi.
bp’s decision to set up The Gigahub in Houston is a good move as the location is an ideal site for EV chargers. It was mentioned that the company first announced its plans to put in $1 billion to set up EV charging infrastructure in the U.S. by 2030.
The plan is to invest $500 million by the end of 2025 and install about 3,000 charge points by then. Globally, bp already has 29,000 charge points, and its target is over 100,000 in six years.
Opening Date and Expansion Plans
bp pulse’s The Gigahub charging station for electric vehicles was already launched on Wednesday, March 20, but it will be opened to the public on April 2. The company said it will continue to install additional charging points at locations with high demand for the chargers, like the airports, major areas in the metro, and other properties owned by the company in the region. Soon, the bp pulse EV charging points will be available in California, Tennessee, Kentucky, Virginia, and Pennsylvania.
"As we expand our global footprint, I am thrilled to unveil our first EV charging Gigahub in the US,” bp’s executive vice president for customers and products, Emma Delaney, said in a press release. “With leading fast charging positions already in key markets in the UK, China, and Germany, we're learning about customer charging preferences on the go."
Sujay Sharma, bp’s chief executive officer, said, "This project will bring fast, reliable charging to EV drivers when and where they need it, helping support faster electric-vehicle adoption in the US. We look forward to welcoming new and existing EV drivers to our growing network."
