From Transport Evolved.

When they work, electric car charging stations are amazing! When they don’t work, they’re anything but.

Last week, we gave you our deepest dive yet into how fast charging for electric cars works, courtesy of a fascinating interview with Jeremy Whaling from EVgo.

Today, we’re looking around EVgo’s Technology Innovation Centre, where the company not only tests new charging apparatus before it’s deployed, but also devises and develops solutions to keep existing hardware fully-functional as it ages (adding new software features to old hardware in the process!)

EVgo provided us with lunch, and a free charge at the Technology Innovation Centre as we made our way back from Los Angeles to Portland on our recent road trip.
