Electrify America launches congestion fee pilot at select charging stations
Electrify America has followed Tesla into one strategy intended to reduce congestion at its chargers, as announced by the Volkswagen-owned company this week.
On Monday, Electrify America announced that it would be piloting a program to institute an 85-percent State of Charge (SoC) limit at its charging stations, along with charging idling fees starting 10 minutes after charging is complete. Dubbed the Congestion Reduction Pilot, the program will take place at stations throughout Southern California, beginning in the coming days.
The company also says it plans to closely monitor customer feedback at the select stations, in order to help decide how to move forward with expanding the program.
To reduce queuing and improve customer throughput, we will be conducting a Congestion Reduction Pilot at select Electrify America stations, enforcing a State of Charge (SOC) limit of 85%. Learn more about our pilot program here: https://t.co/0g2JHtmFMP

Electrify America has been criticized by many in the electric vehicle (EV) community for the lack of charger reliability at some stations, with individual charging stalls often being broken, causing increased congestion. Last year, the Volkswagen-owned charging network joined much of the industry in adopting Tesla’s North American Charging Standard (NACS), with the company set to roll out adapters for the Tesla-developed charging hardware to its stations.
