The project replaced outdated chargers with 55 new Level 2 ChargePoint units that together can serve 94 vehicles simultaneously and include multiple CP6000 stations. (businesswire.com) ChargePoint says the CP6000 delivers about 60% faster charging than a typical Level 2 station and uses the company’s Omni Port connector system so modern EVs can charge without an adapter. (businesswire.com) All stations are managed through ChargePoint’s next‑generation Platform, which provides intelligent station monitoring, remote performance diagnostics, and a Waitlist feature that creates a virtual queue via the ChargePoint mobile app. (businesswire.com) The deployment serves South Coast AQMD employees and the public across the agency’s jurisdiction of Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties and was announced on April 1, 2026. (businesswire.com) ChargePoint highlighted a cumulative network milestone in the release, saying the company has enabled more than 21 billion electric miles to date as part of its broader electrification efforts. (businesswire.com) South Coast AQMD Executive Officer Wayne Nastri framed the installation as supporting emissions reductions, noting transportation accounts for about 40% of California’s greenhouse gases with light‑duty vehicles representing roughly 25–30% statewide.
