Our take

Electric vehicles are predicted to account for nearly 30% of new vehicle sales by 2025, which means the need for EV charging infrastructure is on the rise. ChargePoint supplies just such infrastructure, with hardware, software and mobile solutions for "every charging need".

Boasting the world’s largest EV charging network, the company also provides complimentary services for drivers, businesses and fleets. These include, for example, a mobile app for finding and paying for charging, and project management tools for making the switch to EVs.

Having already established a strong presence in the lucrative and expanding EV charging market, ChargePoint is well-poised to assist in the electric mobility revolution. It serves a range of clients across North America and Europe, including Wells Fargo whom it partnered with to create financing solutions for EV infrastructure. 2023 saw funds secured that will support its goal of reaching profitability in the near future.
