Since 2022, EVCS has successfully integrated the NACS connector on its network, retrofitting more than 35% of its DC Fast chargers in California with NACS plugs. These retrofits have enabled Tesla drivers to gain streamlined access to the EVCS network, allowing them to fast-charge at convenient locations such as hotels, gyms, grocery stores, shopping centres, universities, and more.
This year, NACS connectors have enabled up to 38% of EVCS' DC Fast charger utilisation in California. The company is proud that a significant and growing portion of this usage is by high mileage rideshare drivers with Tesla vehicles, who rely on EVCS for their daily charging needs. Tesla drivers have charged more than 2.3 million miles on the EVCS network this year alone.
"Our commitment to Tesla drivers is not a future promise, but a current reality," said Karim Farhat, EVCS chief commercial officer. "We welcome Tesla drivers to enjoy fast and cost-effective charging on our network today, and we remain strongly committed to welcoming all EVs with the NACS connector to our network in the future. Capable of charging EVs with the J-1772, CHAdeMO, CCS1, and NACS connectors, EVCS is proud to charge every EV in the market today."
