EV Realty opens truck charging Hub in San Bernardino

EV Realty recently announced the opening of its flagship multi-fleet truck charging hub in San Bernardino with 76 high-power charging ports and 9 MW of capacity, sufficient to serve over 200 medium- and heavy-duty trucks per day. The site is designed to reliably serve all makes and models of medium- and heavy-duty trucks with both CCS charging ports that are standard today and MCS charging ports for next-generation big rigs.

By serving multiple fleets on shared infrastructure, EV Realty’s Powered Properties^® model delivers better economics for a wide variety of fleet users. Announced customers include large national carrier J.B. Hunt Transport, Inc., major beverage distributor Gate City Beverage (part of Harbor Distributing, a Reyes Holdings company), and Nevoya, a fully electric carrier that is rapidly expanding operations.

The site is strategically located near the San Bernardino Intermodal Facility, more than 60 million square feet of nearby industrial warehouses, in an area that is home to nearly 17,000 medium and heavy-duty trucks. It also sits near Interstates 10 and 215, a major freight lane from the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach.

“The Inland Empire is where freight from the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach gets sorted and sent across the country by truck and rail,” said EV Realty CEO Patrick Sullivan. “Fleets operating here are doing some of the most important and demanding work in the supply chain. They need reliable and affordable access to high-power charging so that they can move beyond pilots and make electrification a real business decision. That’s exactly what we’ve built here.”

Construction of EV Realty’s San Bernardino charging station was supported by grants from the South Coast Air Quality Management District’s Carl Moyer Program and the California Energy Commission’s EnergIIZE Commercial Vehicles Project.
