EVgo shares record Q3 results and double digit YoY growth for eighth consecutive quarter
EV charging network EVgo has published its Q3 2024 financial report, which shows record revenue and tremendous year-over-year growth. EVgo’s growth has continued over the last eight quarters, seven of which saw a triple-digit increase in energy throughput.
EVgo continues to grow as one of the United States’ largest EV charging networks. Its current footprint consists of over 1,000 fast-charging locations across 40 states, with many more pending, as shown in the company’s service map below.
In May, we reported that EVgo had doubled its registered users in two years, surpassing 1 million active customers. That milestone also saw a 400% increase since April 2020. While some competitors have caught flak for their lack of maintenance and reliability, EVgo has rolled out a “ReNew” program to repair and replace charging piles and ensure customers can replenish their EVs.
Before today’s Q3 report, EVgo had also rolled out several perks and support programs for EV drivers, including access for Tesla owners and fast charging for Hertz rentals, all while rolling out new 350 kW charging stations through partnerships with companies like Pilot/Flying J, and General Motors.
Those efforts appear to be paying off, as EVgo shared record revenue and steady growth in its Q3 2024 financial report.
EVgo added 147K additional customers in Q3 2024
According to EVgo’s Q3 2024 report, the EV charging network achieved record revenue totaling $67.5 million. That’s up from $35.1 million in Q3 of 2023, representing 92% YoY growth.
EVgo’s total throughput increased to 78 GWh last quarter, compared to 37 GWh in Q3 2023, representing 111% growth during that time. The charging network added over 147,000 new customers in Q3, eclipsing 1.2 million users in total, representing a 39% year-over-year increase. Total accounts are up 57% compared to Q3 2023. EVgo CEO Badar Khan spoke:
I’m pleased to report another record quarter anchored by strong revenues and triple digit year-over-year network throughput growth. Our deployment team continued to meet demand head-on bringing a record number of stalls online in the third quarter. With our conditional commitment from DOE for a loan guarantee of up to $1.05 billion announced last month, EVgo is poised to lead the industry as the charging provider of choice. As we look ahead to the end of the year and into fiscal 2025, we are working diligently to complete the loan process, drive our next phase of growth as an owner and operator of fast charging infrastructure, and deliver continued and sustainable value creation for our shareholders.
EVgo shared that its Q3 revenue milestone represents eight sequential quarters of double-digit growth and seven consecutive quarters of triple-digit growth year-over-year in terms of throughput. Here’s EVgo’s Q3 2024 report by the numbers:
- Revenue: $67.5 million
- Network Throughput: 78 gigawatt-hours
- Customer Account Additions: over 147,000 accounts
- Gross Profit: $6.4 million
- Net Loss: $33.3 million
- Adjusted Gross Profit: $18 million
- Adjusted EBITDA: $8.9 million
- Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities: $12.1 million
- Capital Expenditures: $25.8 million
- Capital Expenditures, Net of Capital Offsets: $5.2 million
Following today’s report, EVgo appears poised to continue to grow and could eventually become the nation’s largest EV charging network. As reported in October, the network received a loan from the US Department of Energy totaling $1.05 billion to install 7,500 additional EV fast chargers in the US. EVgo’s anticipated states for charger expansion will be Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Texas.

U.S. crude oil falls below $60 a barrel to lowest since 2021 on tariff-fueled recession fears

U.S. oil prices dropped below $60 a barrel on Sunday on fears President Donald Trump’s global tariffs would push the U.S., and maybe the world, into a recession.
Futures tied to U.S. West Texas intermediate crude fell more than 3% to $59.74 on Sunday night. The move comes after back-to-back 6% declines last week. WTI is now at the lowest since April 2021.
Worries are mounting that tariffs could lead to higher prices for businesses, which could lead to a slowdown in economic activity that would ultimately hurt demand for oil.
Oil futures, 5 years
The tariffs, which are set to take effect this week, “would likely push the U.S. and possibly global economy into recession this year,” according to JPMorgan. The firm on Thursday raised its odds of a recession this year to 60% following the tariff rollout, up from 40%.
Fueled by incentives from the Illinois EPA and the state’s largest utility company, new EV registrations nearly quadrupled the 12% first-quarter increase in EV registrations nationally – and there are no signs the state is slowing down.
Despite the dramatic slowdown of Tesla’s US deliveries, sales of electric vehicles overall have perked up in recent months, with Illinois’ EV adoption rate well above the Q1 uptick nationally. Crain’s Chicago Business reports that the number of new EVs registered across the state totaled 9,821 January through March, compared with “just” 6,535 EVs registered in the state during the same period in 2024.
Those numbers represent more than 50% growth in EV registrations – far beyond the expected 12% first-quarter increase nationally being projected by Cox Automotive. (!)
What’s going on in Illinois?
While President Trump and Elmo were running for re-election, they campaigned on the threat promise of canceling the $7,500 federal tax credit for EVs. Along with California Governor Gavin Newsom, Illinois’ Governor JB Pritzker made countermoves – launching a $4,000 rebate for new electric cars and up to $1,500 for the purchase of a new electric motorcycle.
At the same time, the state’s largest utility, ComEd, launched a $90 million EV incentive program featuring a new Point of Purchase initiative to deliver instant discounts to qualifying business and public sector customers who make the switch to electric vehicles. That program has driven a surge in Class 3-6 medium duty commercial EVs, which are eligible fro $20-30,000 in utility rebates on top of federal tax credits and other incentives (Class 1-2 EVs are eligible for up to $7,500).
We covered the launch of those incentives when the program was announced at Chicago Drives Electric last year, but the message here is simple: incentives work.

The electric construction equipment experts at XCMG just released a new, 25 ton electric crawler excavator ahead of bauma 2025 – and they have their eye on the global urban construction, mine operations, and logistical material handling markets.
Powered by a high-capacity 400 kWh lithium iron phosphate battery capable of delivering up to 8 hours of continuous operation, the XE215EV electric excavator promises uninterrupted operation at a lower cost of ownership and with even less downtime than its diesel counterparts.
XCMG is delivering on part of that reduced downtime promise with the lower maintenance and easier repair needs of electric equipment, and delivering on the rest of it with lickety-quick DC fast charging that can recharge the machine’s massive battery in 1.5-2 hours … but that’s not the slick bit. The XCMG XE125EV can be powered up without leaving the job site thanks to its BYD battery swap technology.
We first covered XCMG and its battery swap technology back in January, and covered similar battery-swap tech being developed by MOOG Construction offshoot ZQUIP, as well – but while XCMG’s battery tech has been in production for several years, it’s still not widely known about in the West (even within the industry).
XCMG showed off its latest electric equipment at the December 2024 bauma China, including an updated version of its of its 85-ton autonomous electric mining truck that features a fully cab-less design – meaning there isn’t even a place for an operator to sit, let alone operate. And that’s too bad, because what operator wouldn’t want to experience an electric truck putting down 1070 hp more than 16,000 lb-ft of torque!?
Easy in, easy out
The best part? All of the company’s heavy equipment assets – from excavators to terminal tractors to dump trucks and wheel loaders – all use the same 400 kWh BYD battery packs, Milwaukee tool style. That means an equipment fleet can utilize x number of vehicles with a fraction of the total battery capacity and material needs of other asset brands. That’s not just a smart use of limited materials, it’s a smarter use of energy.
You can check out all the XE215EV’s specs at this tear sheet, and get an in-person look at the Chinese company’s latest electric excavator this week in Munich, Germany.
