Walgreens plans to install eVgo electric vehicle (EV) charging stations at approximately 800 locations across the country by the end of the year, making it the nation’s largest retail host. The charging stations will feature either a high-speed direct current (DC) charger that can add 30 miles of range in as little as 10 minutes of charging time, or a level 2 charger that can add up to 25 miles of range per hour of charge. Major markets expected to host these sites include Boston, Denver, Los Angeles, New York City, San Francisco and Washington, D.C. Select locations in Florida, New Jersey, Oregon, Tennessee and Washington will also receive EV charging stations. Walgreens already has installations under way for EV charging stations at more than 60 stores across Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth and Chicago.
