In 2020, EVgo conducted a survey to learn about its customers’ shopping habits. Of all the customer that shopped during their last charging session, 80% responded that the availability of fast chargers influenced their decision of where to shop.

Fast chargers drive visits by attracting new customers searching for a fast charger, increasing the frequency of your current customer visits because a quick full charge is another reason to shop, and help retain customers by giving EV driving customers the shopping + charging experience they want – instead of them going to find it at the store across town.

In the same survey, 80% of all customers responded that they like to shop while they charge. And that EVgo customers spend a good amount at grocery stores – with an average basket size of $42.22.

EVgo also offers a proprietary coupon software, EVgo Advantage™, that grocers can use to bring even more customers from the charger into the store to shop. Early results have shown a 30% click-through rate and average basket sizes nearly twice the amount of EVgo customers from the survey.

EVgo’s owner-operator model means we invest in your property by funding, installing, and maintaining the fast chargers – all the new in-store revenue the chargers attract is yours to keep.

Through its customer shopping survey and charger usage data, we’ve found EVgo fast chargers have the potential to drive more than $100,000 of annual incremental revenue to grocers – we don’t ask for any of that.
