PositivEnergy has announced a major expansion of its work with the City of Philadelphia to deploy approximately 435 DC fast charging and Level 2 charging ports across the city.
The project builds on Philadelphia’s ongoing electrification efforts and reflects the city’s commitment to expanding accessible and equitable EV charging infrastructure at scale.
PositivEnergy’s focus on long-term reliability sets it apart from much of the industry, which has historically struggled with poor uptime, inconsistent user experiences, and poor site selection. The company delivers greater than 90% charger uptime, significantly outperforming industry averages.
“We are proud to support Philadelphia’s electrification and sustainability goals with charging infrastructure designed around the real needs of the community,” said Ed Wise, CEO of PositivEnergy, in a statement. “Drivers should not have to wonder whether a charger will work when they arrive. Our focus is simple: build infrastructure that is reliable, accessible, and built to last.”
The company’s Charging-as-a-Service model allows municipalities and commercial partners to deploy charging infrastructure without the operational burden traditionally associated with EV networks. Its proprietary PositivAssess platform identifies high-performing charging locations before deployment, reducing the risk of underutilized infrastructure and improving long-term network performance.
To date, PositivEnergy has deployed more than 500 charging ports across municipalities, airports, universities, stadiums, and enterprise locations, including projects with Raleigh-Durham International Airport, Duke University, Arizona State University, and NextEra Energy.
