General Motors and ChargePoint Holdings have come together to install hundreds of fast charging ports for EVs across the U.S.

The two companies will install ChargePoint's Omni Port system, branded as GM Energy, in strategic locations across the country which will allow EV charging on the go, they said Wednesday.

The Omni Port system by EV vehicle infrastructure company ChargePoint allows vehicles with CCS or NACS charging ports, the two most common ports found in EVs, to charge at any charger without requiring an adapter or dedicate a parking space to a particular connector type.

"Many of the charging stations planned for the collaboration will feature ultra-fast charging through ChargePoint's Express Plus platform, which is capable of charging speeds up to 500kW," the company said.

ChargePoint and GM expect locations to be opened and available to the public before the end of next year.
