The company recently initiated the construction of next-generation EV charging stations at its locations in Ripley and Waterloo, New York.

Shane Wharton, President of Love’s Travel Stops, emphasized the company’s role in building a robust EV charging network: “Love’s is honored to play a critical role in actively shaping and building out the fast-charging electric vehicle network across the nation.”
In collaboration with Trillium Energy Solutions, a Love’s Family of Companies brand, Love’s has secured state and federal grants under the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Formula Program. This program, which aims to create a national network of 500,000 EV chargers, has awarded Love’s substantial funding to expand its charging infrastructure. Upcoming projects include NEVI-funded stations in Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Alabama, and more.
