(September 30, 2024) SAN DIEGO — Electrify America, a leader in electric vehicle (EV) charging solutions, is proud to announce the opening of its latest large format charging station;  at Simon’s Fashion Valley in San Diego featuring 20 Hyper-Fast chargers — capable of speeds up to 350 kilowatts (kW). With easy access to multiple shopping and dining options, the charging station is part of Electrify America’s plan to meet current and future demand by opening larger format stations.

“Our 1,000th charging station marks a significant milestone for Electrify America and reinforces our commitment to convenient EV charging,” said Robert Barrosa, CEO of Electrify America. “In just over six years, our team has rapidly built an open Hyper-Fast charging network across 47 states, the District of Columbia, and seven Canadian provinces to drive confidence in electric vehicles as the preferred choice for personal transportation.”

“Simon currently has more than 85 Electrify America charging stations at our properties across the U.S., providing a high-value amenity for our shoppers and the surrounding community to charge their electric vehicles,” said Daniel Segal, VP of Business Development at Simon Property Group. “Having Electrify America’s Hyper-Fast chargers on-site, along with Fashion Valley’s premier shopping, dining, and entertainment options in the San Diego market creates a convenient all-in-one destination for our shared customers to shop, work, dine and play.”

The company’s 1,000th charging station joins an existing Electrify America station at Fashion Valley, increasing the availability of Hyper-Fast chargers on the property by a total of 23. While charging at Fashion Valley, guests are encouraged to use the Electrify America mobile app to track their charging session. Users can also set up notifications to alert them when their session is over so they can unplug and allow another guest to use the charger.

Customers with eligible EVs can seamlessly charge at Electrify America’s Plug&Charge-enabled network after enrolling in their vehicle’s Electrify America Premium Offer. Plug&Charge allows EV drivers to simply plug in to start a charging session, eliminating the need to reach for a wallet, smartphone or bank card.
