EV Realty and Prologis Mobility have announced a joint initiative to coordinate access to high-power EV charging hubs along major freight corridors in Northern and Southern California. The collaboration aims to simplify and expand charging solutions for commercial fleet operators, particularly those operating medium- and heavy-duty electric trucks.

The plan involves linking their respective charging infrastructure networks at regional logistics hubs situated near ports, key freight routes and logistics centers. The companies report that the first integrated hubs will open in Vernon and San Bernardino later in 2025, with several more facilities planned across the region.

This joint effort addresses a major obstacle in large-scale electric fleet adoption: fragmented charging networks that force operators to manage multiple access points and incompatible software systems. EV Realty and Prologis Mobility say the shared access model will provide a unified system for fleets, streamlining charging processes and reducing operational delays.

The companies note that this approach supports recommendations from a recent study by Prologis and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Climate and Sustainability Consortium, which identified shared infrastructure as a driver for faster commercial EV deployment.

EV Realty develops and operates high-powered charging hubs near industrial and freight corridors, focusing on reliable, scalable grid access for commercial fleets. Prologis Mobility offers subscription-based charging solutions and is expanding public and private charging infrastructure within its global logistics portfolio.
