ChargePoint Crosses 100 Million EV Charging Sessions: The Infrastructure Tipping Point | Taha Abbasi

A Hundred Million Charges and Counting
Taha Abbasi analyzes ChargePoint's milestone of surpassing 100 million EV charging sessions on its network — and what this number reveals about the state of electric vehicle infrastructure in 2026.
Numbers tell stories. When ChargePoint announced it had facilitated over 100 million charging sessions on its network in the past year, it told a story that every EV skeptic needs to hear: the infrastructure is here, and it's being used at massive scale.
What 100 Million Sessions Means
One hundred million charging sessions represents roughly 274,000 charges per day across ChargePoint's network. That's 274,000 times per day that an EV driver pulled up to a charger, plugged in, charged their vehicle, and drove away. This isn't a pilot program. This isn't an early adopter curiosity. This is industrial-scale infrastructure serving mainstream transportation needs.
As Taha Abbasi points out, this milestone undermines one of the most persistent arguments against EV adoption: that the charging infrastructure isn't ready. ChargePoint alone is handling hundreds of thousands of sessions daily. Add Tesla's Supercharger network, Electrify America, EVgo, and dozens of smaller networks, and the total daily charging volume is staggering.
The Growth Trajectory
What makes this number even more significant is the growth curve. ChargePoint's session volume has been roughly doubling year-over-year, driven by both network expansion and increased EV adoption. At this rate, the 200 million mark could be reached in 2027 — not because of heroic effort, but because of organic demand growth.
The growth is also shifting in character. Early charging sessions were dominated by workplace and destination charging — Level 2 chargers at offices and hotels. Increasingly, the mix includes high-power DC fast charging for road trips and fleet operations. Taha Abbasi sees this shift as evidence that EVs are transitioning from commuter vehicles to primary transportation for all use cases.
What It Means for the Future
Infrastructure milestones like this create confidence cascading effects. Automakers commit to more EV models knowing charging infrastructure exists. Investors fund more charging deployment knowing demand is proven. Consumers buy EVs knowing they won't be stranded. Each milestone accelerates the next investment cycle.
Taha Abbasi continues to track EV infrastructure development as a critical enabler of the broader transportation revolution. The cars are ready. The charging is ready. The question now is simply how fast adoption accelerates.
