Hertz and BP signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to develop a national network of EV charging stations powered by BP pulse.

The agreement also involves the management of Hertz’s charging infrastructure by BP pulse and the customization of its Omega software to ensure Hertz’s growing fleet of electric rental cars are recharged quickly and efficiently between rentals. Omega supports fleet operations by automating charging when the power price is low while providing real-time visibility to EVs, chargers, power usage, and more.

Hertz has a national footprint of locations across North America suitable for BP pulse to build and manage a network of fast-charging hubs to serve Hertz customers, including taxi and ride-sharing drivers, as well as the general public.
