Fast-charging network EVgo has entered into an MOU with Taiwanese electronics manufacturer Delta Electronics to jointly develop next-generation EV charging architecture.
The architecture is designed to provide EVgo with more control over the customer experience and to improve reliability, cost savings and energy efficiency. The company aims to lower its gross capital expense per stall by 30% while increasing peak power delivery by nearly 20%.
The fast chargers will include advanced software, all-in-one power electronics, a contactless payment interface, 400 kW dispensers, dynamic power sharing across up to six charging stalls, and extended cable length. EVgo expects to complete final design and testing in its Innovation Lab and to deploy the new chargers by the second half of 2026.
“As the next step in our evolution,” said EVgo President Dennis Kish, “EVgo will leverage our learnings and experience from working with over one million customers across the US to develop this next-generation charging architecture in collaboration with Delta Electronics, with the goal of increasing consumer confidence in public EV infrastructure and supporting broader adoption of electric vehicles nationwide.”
