Stem and ChargePoint announce joint electric mobility offering
An interoperable EV charging infrastructure solution will be designed to capture and maximize EV value streams, plus support to offset up to 80% of project costs through NEVI incentives
Stem (NYSE: STEM), a leading global provider of AI-enabled clean energy solutions and services, announced its joint eMobility offering with ChargePoint Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: CHPT), a leading electric vehicle (EV) charging network . Stem and ChargePoint are developing a joint offering aimed at bringing economic, environmental and resilient benefits to owners, developers and operators of EV charging stations. The offer should integrate Athena®, Stem's clean energy platform, on-site energy storage and ChargePoint's Express platform to achieve cost savings and maximize value now and over the life of assets. The joint offering and support from Stem's energy experts will help facility owners navigate the federal and state processes to secure the funding incentives offered through the $25,000 National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) program. 5 billion for the added value of charging stations for electric vehicles that could offset up to 80%. of the project costs, if available. Beyond NEVI-qualified projects, all energy-intensive commercial EV charging stations can leverage the joint offering to maximize operational savings while providing backup power for resiliency.
As part of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Act (BIL), the NEVI program commits $5 billion over five years to strategically deploy EV charging infrastructure and establish an interconnected network for easy data collection, access and reliability. On-site energy storage systems like those offered by Stem have already been identified by states like California and Texas as potential EV charging strategies that offer grid stability, high reliability, and minimized demand charges.
Stem's Athena platform, the foundation of its fully integrated and interoperable eMobility solution, learns from EV charging behavior and optimizes and controls batteries, photovoltaics (PV) and microgrids. The companies intend to integrate Athena's core optimization services, such as power charge and time-of-use optimization, with ChargePoint's Express Plus management software to reduce costs, increase resiliency and minimize losses from greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. ChargePoint Express Plus is specifically designed for gas and convenience locations, retail outlets and highway corridors. Capable of delivering up to 500 kilowatts (kW) per port, depending on configuration, the Express Plus system is designed to easily scale to meet future demand as EV adoption and vehicle capacity grows. In addition, ChargePoint's charging management software provides control and information on charging behavior and system status. Together, the cloud-based integration enables data sharing for longer uptime, lower costs, and an improved user experience. The joint solution will be designed to enable customers to:
- enable resilience: Keep EVs charging during power outages to promote resilience of electrification strategies.
- Overcome network limitations: Mitigate constrained grid conditions and speed up charging by using solar + storage.
- Optimize operational savings: Maximize program revenue and save on utility bills by utilizing mixed-source energy.
- Maximize the use of renewable energy on site when charging electric vehicles:Reduce greenhouse gas emissions from fleet charging by using on-site stored solar power and cleaner electricity from the grid.
"Stem is excited to partner with ChargePoint to help customers rapidly plan, develop and operate cost-effective EV charging infrastructure projects that deliver real value," said John Carrington, CEO of Stem. "The electrification of transportation is creating a new charging category that is expected to account for a third of all electric charging in the US. For Stem, e-mobility is expected to account for about 50% of our behind-the-meter activity three years from now, which is a multi-billion dollar opportunity." dollars to our Fortune 500 customers.”
"An integrated ChargePoint and Stem solution expands the number of sites that can economically support high-speed charging at scale," said Pasquale Romano, CEO of ChargePoint.
