  • Rove CEO Bill Reid Is Re-inventing EV Charging in California
    Jul 22 2025
    Bill Reid, chairman and CEO of Rove Charging, shares how his team is building large-scale, customer-first EV charging hubs across California. From 24/7 support to thoughtful amenities, Rove is reshaping what drivers can expect from public charging. Due to a significant change in policy support, EV ownership in the U.S. overall will be slower than in many countries, but California, with an economy the size of Japan’s, is actually on a very similar EV growth track to fast-growing parts of Europe, and this is creating big roadside opportunities.
