WS Development has announced it will collaborate with Electrify America to install hyper-fast EV charging stations at many of its retail destinations, starting this winter.
WS Development owns and operates more than 100 properties spanning urban, lifestyle, and community centers. The partnership will enable EV drivers to access convenient, hyper-fast charging at properties across its national portfolio.
“Partnering with Electrify America allows us to take another meaningful step toward making sustainability part of the everyday experience at our properties,” said Jake Stahl, Chief Financial Officer of WS Development, in a statement. “We’re proud to offer our visitors the convenience of fast, reliable EV charging while investing in clean energy solutions that support the future of our communities.”
Beginning in early 2026, the new charging stations will be installed at 15 WS Development properties in Massachusetts, including The Shops at Blackstone Valley in Millbury, Walmart Plaza in Salem, and The Street Chestnut Hill, located in Chestnut Hill. The company also plans to roll out installations across other properties in New York, Florida, Illinois, and California.
The stations will be integrated into the Electrify America app and network, enabling drivers to easily locate chargers, initiate sessions, and pay, all within the same platform they already use.
Rachel Moses, Sr. Director, Sales, Business Development, & Marketing at Electrify America, added, “Electrify America is proud to collaborate with WS Development to bring Hyper-Fast EV charging to some of the most iconic retail destinations in the country. Our white label solution enables WS Development to operate its own charging network while leveraging Electrify America’s trusted technology, network scale, and seamless experience. This approach combines innovation with convenience, helping drivers charge with confidence and making electric transportation an easy choice.”
