- ChargePoint disclosed that it enabled over 100 million EV charging sessions in the past year.
- ChargePoint estimates that since 2007 it has helped avoid 714 million gallons of gasoline, saved drivers more than $2 billion in fuel costs, and prevented over 4.5 million metric tons of GHG emissions.
- Rick Wilmer said that nearly 60 % of the 19.3 billion electric miles the company has enabled in 18 years occurred in the last two years, indicating a shift from new‑car sales to total EV fleet size as the main driver of charger demand.
- U.S. fast‑charging networks logged an estimated 141 million charging sessions in 2025, a record up about 30 % year‑over‑year, showing that rising EV adoption translates directly into higher network usage rather than idle capacity.
- ChargePoint predicts that installers in 2026 will see accelerated ROI because utilization pressure on chargers is increasing.
Why it matters: The milestone signals that EV drivers and charger operators are benefiting from higher utilization, while fossil‑fuel reliance declines; installers can expect faster returns on new stations, and the broader market sees a shift toward fleet size rather than new‑car sales as the key demand metric.
