Revenue for the third quarter of 2024 reached $67.5 million, compared to $35.1 million in the third quarter of 2023, representing 92% year-over-year growth.

“I’m pleased to report another record quarter anchored by strong revenues and triple-digit year-over-year network throughput growth,” said Badar Khan, EVgo’s CEO. “Our deployment team continued to meet demand head-on bringing a record number of stalls online in the third quarter. As we look ahead to the end of the year and into fiscal 2025, we are working diligently to complete the loan process, drive our next phase of growth as an owner and operator of fast-charging infrastructure, and deliver continued and sustainable value creation for our shareholders.”
