E-mobility startup Rivian, heavily supported by Amazon, has announced plans to build a proprietary charging network in North America. The company plans to install 10,000 charging stations in the US and Canada. This number includes both powerful fast chargers installed on highways and so-called second-level charging stations with a capacity of 11.5 kW – they will be located in remote places (for example, near parks).
Each section of the Rivian Adventure Network (RAN) will include multiple charging stations conveniently located on highways and major highways, close to cafes and shops. Proprietary DC fast chargers are intended only for owners of Rivian cars – the promising Rivian R1T pickup truck and R1S SUV. But since Rivian is a maker of Amazon electric delivery vans, they will likely be able to use the Rivian Adventure Network as well.
The first RAN charging stations will open in Colorado parks this July. Data on RAN points will be embedded in the navigation systems of the company’s cars, and a complete list of them will be presented in the corporate mobile application. Rivian claims the charging network will be powered exclusively by renewable energy sources.
