bp pulse says the deal will deliver over 900 ultra-fast charging bays that support nearly every make and model of EVs on the market today across all locations, with the first locations opening to the public in early 2026.
Richard Bartlett, CEO bp pulse, said: “We’re pleased to complete this deal with Simon and expand our ultra-fast charging network footprint in the US. The Simon portfolio aligns with bp pulse’s strategy to deploy ultra-fast charging across the West Coast, East Coast, Sun Belt and Great Lakes, and we are thrilled to team up with Simon so that EV drivers have a range of retail offerings at their impressive destinations.”
Simon owns premier shopping, dining, entertainment and mixed-use destinations in the US.
Chip Harding, executive VP, Simon Brand Ventures, commented: “Simon is committed to offering best-in-class brands, amenities, experiences and sustainable practices to our shoppers and the communities that we serve. We look forward to expanding our EV charging options across the Simon portfolio with bp pulse.”
bp pulse says the deal is part of the company's focus on delivering charging infrastructure in the locations customers want and need, through collaboration and new-to-industry builds. It adds that Simon destinations are the latest sites identified for the bp pulse EV charging network in the US, following earlier announcements including the build out of the Gigahub network near airports and major metropolitan areas, and by installing EV charging across bp’s significant branded convenience store and TravelCenters of America network.
Sujay Sharma, CEO bp pulse Americas, said: “As a committed long term infrastructure player with a global network of EV charging solutions, bp pulse intends to continue to seek and build transformative industry collaborations in real estate required to scale our network and match the demand of current and future EV drivers.”
