Arcadis announced the completion of bp's latest high-speed EV charging site at the company's North America headquarters in Houston, Texas. The new bp pulse station is the first bp pulse branded Gigahub? in the US for their EV charging business.

Arcadis delivered program and construction management for the installation of 24 high-speed charge points at bp's Houston campus. Twelve Tritium 150kW DC fast chargers were installed at the site, which are configured so any electric vehicle will have the capability to charge at the new EV charging facility. Parking canopies designed to support a Solar PV system may be added in the future.

The site is designed to accommodate potential expansion with additional chargers as needed, as well as restrooms, a lounge, and convenience store. The new EV charging facility will provide increased capacity for electric vehicle charging across greater Houston, making EV ownership more convenient and helping to reduce driver hesitation to make the switch from gas and diesel vehicles to full electric vehicles. The new charging Gigahub is a critical addition to the City of Houston that is seeing a rapidly growing number of electric vehicles in the city.

bp unveiled the new charging Gigahub during the CERAWeek by S&P Global Conference. The facility is now open to the public.
