Thank you to EV Infrastructure and Energy Summit  and Jonathan Touriño Jacobo for including Paren in this insightful piece on the evolving economics of fast-charging networks in the U.S.. As EV adoption accelerates, understanding pricing dynamics is key to ensuring accessible and reliable charging for all drivers. Proud to contribute to this important conversation on the future of clean mobility. https://lnkd.in/gSr3pDfQ

🚗⚡ Big thanks to E&E News and reporter Mike Lee featuring Paren in their latest story: “EV charger build-out continues despite Trump”. We're proud to provide data showing that in Q3 2025, the U.S. added 699 DC fast-charging stations and over 4,000 charging ports — even amidst political headwinds. As our CTO Bill Ferro shared in our Q3 webinar: “The infrastructure is there and the drivers have enough confidence in that infrastructure to take the great American road trip.” And we believe that trend is just getting started. Reliable data, growing infrastructure, and confident drivers — it’s an exciting time for EV adoption. 👉 Read the article here: https://lnkd.in/gn-it8EU
