7-Eleven To Build Charging Network in U.S. and Canada

7-Eleven announced that it would be building a proprietary EV charging network, 7Charge, at select stores in the U.S., and Canada. Currently, several fast-charging services are in place in Florida, Texas, Colorado, and California.

7Charge sites allow customers to charge any EV make and model compatible with common CHAdeMO or Combined Charging System (CCS) plug types, and the 7Charge app will offer a seamless charging and payment experience.

“For over 95 years, 7-Eleven has innovated to meet our customers’ needs – delivering convenience where, when and how they want it,” said Joe DePinto, president and chief executive officer at 7-Eleven. “Now, we are innovating once again to meet our customers’ where they are by expanding our business to provide EV drivers convenience of the future today.”
