Walmart has opened its 100th company-owned and -operated electric vehicle fast-charging site at the Walmart Supercenter in Monument, Colorado.
Located at 16218 Jackson Creek Parkway, the mass retailer announced it is building its network around a simple goal: bring fast, dependable charging to the places customers already shop, at prices they can count on. Walmart EV Chargers are now available at 100 stores across 20 states.
“By expanding EV fast charging at Walmart locations across the country, we're giving drivers a dependable way to charge while they're in the store,” said Shayne Wahlmeier, senior vice president, Walmart Energy. “Reaching 100 sites is an important milestone, and our broad footprint positions us to make EV charging more accessible for communities while expanding the ways we serve our customers.”
Walmart said most of its Walmart EV charging locations feature eight to 16 fast-charging connectors, with chargers capable of delivering up to 400 kilowatts of power. With both Combined Charging System and North American Charging Standard stalls, the network is compatible with most EVs, Walmart said.
The Bentonville, Arkansas based retailer said its Walmart+ members receive discounted charging rates for additional savings.
“Customers can start and pay for charging sessions through the Walmart app, with additional payment options planned as the network expands,” Walmart said in a statement.
