EVgo starts building Tesla Superchargers under license

For most of its existence, the Tesla Supercharger network was both the automaker’s crown jewel and a walled garden.
Manufacturers of DC fast charging equipment can also license Tesla’s Supercharger design.
It says it will start deploying EVgo-made Tesla V4 Superchargers onto its network later this fall.
And because they’re Tesla Superchargers built under license, the EVgo units will appear in Tesla’s in-car navigation app and be included when a Tesla driver uses their onboard route planner.
The hardware will be owned and operated by EVgo, which will also “manage activities such as site host engagement, utility interconnection, and price management at EVgo Supercharger sites,” the company told Ars.
