TS : How have charging technologies evolved ?
JP : ChargePoint has been in the charging industry for 16 years , before the first commercial EV was on the road . We have grown to cover all use cases , both in terms of hardware and software , across two continents . Despite incredible growth in the sector , most EV charging still happens where cars spend most of their time , parked at home or work .
This baseline of lower power AC charging will remain key to cost effective EV growth .

“ IT ’ S SAFE TO SAY THAT GROWTH HAS BEEN FAR GREATER THAN ANYONE COULD HAVE ANTICIPATED ”
