FreeWire Technologies To Make Available Ultrafast, Battery-integrated EV Charging for Chevron and Texaco Stations

FreeWire Technologies, a leader in flexible and future-proof power solutions, has announced an initiative to provide battery-integrated electric vehicle (EV) charging equipment to Chevron’s branded stations. This forward-thinking program is set to encompass both Chevron’s company-owned stations and its independently owned retailer and marketer outlets. The partnership will foster a greener, more sustainable future by facilitating the widespread use of EVs, signaling a significant step towards energy efficiency and environmental stewardship.

“Our charging stations are helping retail locations like Chevron’s branded stations to enhance their offering to consumers,” said Arcady Sosinov, FreeWire Founder and CEO. “Providing ultrafast, convenient charging at traditional fueling stations can help unlock new customer relationships with EV drivers.”

FreeWire’s program is uniquely poised to offer a comprehensive, integrated approach to EV charging. The initiative will pair battery-integrated chargers, underpinned by sophisticated energy management software, with custom branding and design, tailored specifically to enhance Chevron’s station aesthetics and customer experience. Moreover, the use of detailed analytics will enable the optimization of energy consumption patterns, ultimately leading to increased efficiency. This coupling of advanced technology with user-friendly design and data-driven decision-making marks a significant advancement in the EV charging landscape.

“Chevron believes the future of energy is lower carbon, and our program with FreeWire is another step on our journey to deliver all forms of energy to our customers,” said Jesse Love, Chevron’s Retail Brand Experience manager. “We are committed to investing billions in lower-carbon projects over the next 10 years and are excited to join with companies like FreeWire that develop technologies that enhance our retail offerings and can grow our Chevron and Texaco brands.”

FreeWire’s fully integrated Boost Charger™ is set to revolutionize the user experience, providing customers with an impressive 200 miles of range in just 15 minutes. This ground-breaking product plugs directly into existing low-voltage utility service, delivering high-power charging that typically necessitates extensive site improvements and upgrades to the grid. The Boost Charger’s unique capability to bypass such requirements, while still providing high-power, fast charging services, is expected to significantly expedite the expansion of EV charging infrastructure.

“As the world electrifies, traditional fuelers are looking for turnkey, cost-effective solutions like ours,” continued Sosinov. “We’re honored to work with Chevron.”

“As these charging stations are rolled out across our retail network in the United States, our customers will be able to find them and other services on our new Chevron and Texaco mobile apps,” Love added. “Another cool example of delivering a great customer experience.”
