As part of Earth Day on April 22, Electrify America will be offering free charging for EV owners.

They won't charge drivers from 12:00 a.m. EDT April 22 on through to 3:00 a.m. EDT April 23.


Reston, VA (April 20, 2021) -- On Earth Day, Thursday April 22, electric vehicle owners will get free charging sessions at all Electrify America ultra-fast charging stations.

Electric vehicle drivers can locate a charging station by visiting the Electrify America website.

The company will not charge EV drivers for sessions starting at 12:00 a.m. EDT April 22 on through to 3:00 a.m. EDT April 23.

“Driving electric is an impactful action consumers can take to help reduce their carbon footprint, and Electrify America is excited to offer free charging sessions on Earth Day to celebrate that,” said Giovanni Palazzo, president and CEO of Electrify America. “We are proud to help lead an electric vehicle revolution by enabling electric transportation for all Americans, on Earth Day and every day.”

The company is encouraging EV drivers to take advantage of the free charging sessions and to share their commitment to an electric lifestyle to their social followers by using the hashtag #ChargeOnEarth to help foster grassroots support for Earth Day.

Electrify America has more than 589 charging stations across the U.S., with over 2,500 individual DC fast chargers. Since opening its first charging stations in May 2018, Electrify America has set a rapid pace for its network expansion, opening an average of nearly four stations per week. By the end of 2021, Electrify America plans to install or have under development approximately 800 total charging stations with about 3,500 DC fast chargers.

Did anyone get free charging today, July 5 (outside of the VW deal)? I charged at 2 different EA charging locations today and neither time it registered on my app, but charged anyway. At the end it said "Thank you, Free" instead of my name.
