ChargePoint's Strategic Partnership with Eaton Accelerates Innovation and Deployment
ChargePoint is rapidly operationalizing its partnership with Eaton, with work largely expected to be completed within the quarter.
The partnership has already led to the introduction of co-branded products, expanded channel reach, and new revenue streams.
The new DC express line powered by Eaton offers higher power, scalability, and lower installation costs, potentially transforming DC fast charging economics.
ChargePoint is co-developing a bidirectional home charging solution that integrates with Eaton's smart panels, enabling vehicle-to-home backup power.
This collaboration aims to deliver cost-effective, differentiated products that can significantly impact hardware gross margins.
Management expressed confidence that the partnership will accelerate deployment and market share growth in North America and Europe.
