The EV charger companies Kempower and Blink Charging are collaborating to install 92 new EV charging ports at 14 stations. Two sites are already operating and a dozen more will be built in East Coast states in 2026. The two sites already operating are Vasa Fitness in Colorado and Idaho Falls in Idaho. Each new charging station is or will be located near a convenience store where there are also high traffic levels and provide Kempower Power Units and Satellite fast chargers.

“Kempower technology is designed to deliver reliable, scalable, and user-friendly fast charging, and the new sites with Blink showcase how high-performance infrastructure can seamlessly support drivers’ everyday routines. There is a lot of exciting work ahead with Blink as we work together to make sustainable transportation more accessible for everyday drivers,” said Kempower VP of Markets and Products Jed Routh.

In the US, public EV charging infrastructure continues to expand despite certain politicians who oppose electric vehicles. Federal funding has been flowing to some states to expand public fast-charging infrastructure as envisioned by former President Biden.
