“Helping drivers go electric remains one of the most important things we can do as a company,” said Adam Gromis, Head of Sustainability Policy at Uber. Conveniently located in high ridership urban areas, EVgo's fast chargers enable drivers without access to at-home charging to charge in between Uber trips. A recent EVgo survey of drivers in the EVgo program, indicates that approximately 34% of drivers drive 400 to 800 miles each week and another 47% drive more than 800 miles each week and rely heavily on public fast charging. Rideshare drivers often charge multiple times per day. Featuring new discounts and benefits for all drivers using Uber, this expanded initiative builds upon the existing program's success to ultimately increase access to, and utilization of, EVgo’s network of over 800 public fast chargers - helping both companies further accelerate the adoption of zero-emission transportation at scale. With nearly one million rideshare vehicles on the road, electrification of rideshare provides a significant opportunity to add high-utilization drivers to EVgo’s network.
