According to reports, the agreement expands on a previous project in which BP installed chargers at 25 of Hertz’s biggest airport sites. Hertz has also started constructing some EV chargers independently and has already installed them in 500 places around the United States, with intentions to have 3,000 chargers by the end of next year, according to sources. According to the article, Hertz may request for $7.5 million in government subsidies to help expand its network. This coincides with BP’s comparable charging network objectives, with the firm aiming for 100,000 chargers worldwide by 2023.
