The Advanced Clean Transportation (ACT) Expo is the place to be for anyone excited about the future of mobility. Once again, ChargePoint took center stage, showcasing groundbreaking innovations in hardware, software, and services that are set to redefine electric mobility for fleets, businesses, and drivers alike. Let’s dive into the highlights!
Curious about what we’ve been up to since last year? Check out our booth tour to see our latest innovations in action!
Powering Seamless Driver Experiences with ChargePoint Mobility Services
EV drivers expect more than just a place to plug in. They want a charging experience that is simple, mobile-first, and connected to the apps they already use. ChargePoint Mobility Services helps businesses deliver exactly that with:
- Simple customization: Set pricing, welcome messages and track sessions
- Customer engagement: Launch promotions, gather user data and connect with loyalty programs
- Full integration: Embed charging directly into your app using ChargePoint APIs with real-time charging, perks and rewards
Example: Mercedes-Benz drivers can search, start, and pay for charging within the Mercedes-Benz app, enabled by ChargePoint in the background.
In summary, leading fleets and businesses that partner with ChargePoint can count on a suite of APIs, features, and services that enable full find, use, and pay functionality in any application. They achieve success by:
- Keeping transactions within their brand’s ecosystem
- Reimbursing take-home fleet drivers for charging at home
- Connecting on-the-road charging to existing fuel card systems

Protecting Your Stations from Cable Theft
As charging infrastructure develops, the chance of cable theft and vandalism becomes a bigger concern. That is why ChargePoint introduced two solutions to help keep your stations secure and your operations running smoothly:
- Cut-resistant cables: Built with a proprietary, patent-pending technology that significantly increases the time, effort and resources required to steal them. They are available for both new stations and as conversion kits for existing deployments, making them a great fit for fleet yards or any site with higher exposure.
- ChargePoint® Protect: A software feature that detects cable cutting in real time, setting off audible and visual alarms on all nearby stations and alerting the owner via SMS and email. The best part? It can be turned on with a simple software update, no hardware upgrades required for most ChargePoint models.
Put them together and you get a powerful combo of hardware and software that helps protect your investment and provides peace of mind.

Smarter Solutions for Transit Fleets
Electrifying a fleet isn’t just about installing chargers; it’s about creating a comprehensive system. ChargePoint is here to help transit agencies transition smoothly with our smart, flexible platform built to scale and simplify every step:
Our fleet software brings everything you need into one easy-to-use system, including:
- Charger management: Monitor performance and keep costs down
- Energy optimization: Balance grid use with renewables
- Fleet operations: Streamline scheduling, dispatch and depot movement
- Vehicle health tracking: Plugs right into your existing telematics tools
Running a shared depot? No problem. Our platform makes it easy to manage access, adjust pricing, and handle invoicing for multiple operators. You can generate detailed reports by vehicle, all from a single dashboard.
With real-time alerts, clear insights, and an intuitive interface, ChargePoint helps transit teams run more efficiently today while staying ready for what comes next.

Universal Compatibility for Any EV with ChargePoint® Omni Port
Charging should be easy for everyone. But with some EVs using NACS, others using CCS/J1772, planning the right infrastructure can feel like a puzzle.
That is where Omni Port comes in. This flexible connector solution makes it simple to support all major EV models from one station and lets fleets and business steer clear of having to dedicate parking spots to specific connector types.
Available on our CP6000 and Express Plus with Power Link 2000, Omni Port lets you charge:
- NACS vehicles
- CCS vehicles
- J1772 vehicles
No guessing. No confusion. Just plug in and go.
For businesses and fleets, Omni Port removes the guesswork. There is no need to pick one connector type or risk limiting your site. Drivers get what they need, and your station gets more use.
You can add Omni Port to new stations or upgrade compatible ones with a conversion kit. It is a smart way to future proof your site and stay ready for whatever comes next.
