Wawa is stepping up its commitment to electric vehicle (EV) infrastructure by partnering with Electrify America to introduce a series of branded EV chargers. The initiative will start with eight locations in Pennsylvania and is designed to improve accessibility and convenience for EV drivers.
The new chargers are notable for their differentiated pricing and custom design, which aim to create a unique charging experience. Each of the eight locations will feature both North American Charging Standard (NACS) and Combined Charging System (CCS) connectors, with some models capable of delivering fast charging of up to 400 kW.

This rollout represents a strategic expansion for Wawa, which already operates 280 charging stations across 14 states. The introduction of these branded chargers reaffirms Wawa's commitment to providing electric charging options alongside its traditional fuel offerings.
