EVgo Customer Story: Finding Peace of Mind with Fast Charging Network
EVgo's customer Kristan Kirsh shares her experience with electric vehicle charging and long-distance travel, highlighting how EVgo's network provides peace of mind for EV drivers.
As a passionate environmentalist and mother, Kristan chose to drive an EV to minimize her carbon footprint and create a cleaner future for her children. She's been driving electric vehicles exclusively for over five years, initially motivated by her employer Nextracker's EV incentive program.
EVgo supports environmentally conscious drivers by powering all their charging stations with 100% renewable energy, making them the first U.S. public fast charging network to make this commitment.
