General Motors has integrated ChargePoint into its Energy Pass unified charging platform, accessible through myChevrolet, myGMC and myCadillac apps. The addition provides GM EV drivers access to approximately 60% of US public Level 2 chargers and brings Energy Pass coverage to approximately 70% of all DC fast chargers in the United States as planned network integrations come online. GM and ChargePoint have also collaborated for over a year on physical infrastructure, adding hundreds of fast-charging locations in Michigan, California, Florida and upstate New York, many featuring Omniport technology supporting both NACS and CCS1 connectors.

Why it matters: The integration demonstrates how OEM-led aggregation platforms are reshaping network access and potentially influencing site selection priorities for CPOs seeking visibility to major vehicle fleets. ChargePoint's participation in Energy Pass signals competitive pressure on independent networks to join consolidated platforms or risk reduced utilisation from GM's growing EV driver base.

Pilot Flying J has expanded its DC fast-charging network to 309 locations with 1,323 stalls across the United States, adding 50 new sites in 25 states during the first half of 2026. The network now covers a third of the company's 900-plus travel centre footprint in 43 states and five Canadian provinces, up from just over 200 sites and roughly 850 stalls in September 2025. The expansion was confirmed by EV charging data platform Paren and reported by InsideEVs and Electrive.

Why it matters: The 50-site addition in six months demonstrates deployment velocity that matches what many CPOs achieve over several years, setting a benchmark for highway corridor electrification. For procurement teams and site developers, Pilot's pace shows how existing fuel retail infrastructure can accelerate national charging coverage when capital and site access align.
