ChargePoint

What ChargePoint does

ChargePoint is one of the largest open electric vehicle charging networks globally, founded in 2007 and headquartered in Campbell, California. The company provides an integrated EV charging ecosystem spanning Level 2 AC and DC fast charging hardware (including the Express Plus modular architecture, Express Solo at up to 600 kW, and the CP6000 commercial station), a cloud-native ChargePoint Platform for network management, AI-powered analytics and workflow automation, mobile applications for drivers, telematics for fleet management, and professional services for deployment, consulting, and ongoing support. As of 2024 the company employed approximately 1,440 people and had deployed over 1.37 million charging ports across North America and Europe, facilitating more than 21 billion electric miles and serving more than 4 million active app users.

ChargePoint's business model combines hardware sales (one-time revenue from station units and infrastructure), recurring software subscriptions for cloud management and analytics, and professional services including installation, maintenance, and consulting. The go-to-market motion is sales-led with a hybrid channel: direct field sales targeting enterprise fleet operators, transit agencies, and major commercial accounts, complemented by the ChargePoint Partner Connect channel for mid-market deployments, and an e-commerce storefront for residential accessories. Major customer segments include commercial fleet operators, public transit agencies (BVG, Arriva, Gillig, PSTA, Sunline), multi-family housing developers, retail and hospitality operators (MGM Resorts, Simon Property Group), and government/utility entities participating in federal NEVI programs. ChargePoint also pursues automotive OEM partnerships (notably GM Energy) and strategic technology integrations with Eaton for next-generation DC fast charging.

The company went public via SPAC merger in 2020 (NYSE: CHPT) and operates through wholly-owned subsidiaries including ViriCiti (acquired 2021 for fleet telematics) and has.to.be (acquired 2021 for European software). Reporting entities span California (parent), the Netherlands (European HQ), Germany, Austria, UK, and India. As of FY2026 the company reported approximately $411 million in revenue with a net loss of approximately $220 million, and is currently executing a three-year transformation strategy focused on operational discipline, geographic rebalancing toward Europe, and new product introductions including the Express Solo charger launched in April 2026.
