Blink Charging Adopts North America Charging Standard Into Entire Product Line

Blink Charging Co BLNK plans to incorporate both the North America Charging Standard (NACS) and Combined Charging System (CCS) into its charging products line.

Blink will begin producing NACS DCFC chargers by October of 2023.

In addition to Blink's expanding line of DC Fast Chargers, it will now offer NACS inclusion in its line of Level 2 (L2) chargers.

Given that L2 chargers currently account for approximately 90% of EV charging use in the U.S., it is crucial to provide accessible technology to minimize driver confusion.
