From Out of Spec Podcast.

Walter is back with another DC fast charging update, covering the latest news, site openings, and industry moves shaping EV infrastructure across North America and beyond. This episode highlights new IONNA Rechargeries (thank you, Scott!) – including their 100th site milestone – Pilot Flying J progress, fresh stations in Texas and Ohio, and a growing conversation around DCFC brand preferences.

We also dive into major updates from Stellantis, EVgo, Terawatt, GM, and Mercedes, plus a look at Zapcharge’s expansion into Latin America, where the company plans to deploy up to 300,000 chargers by 2030. As always, it’s a packed rundown of everything happening in the fast-moving charging world.
