Walmart’s own EV fast-charging network has reached 109 locations, according to a September 7, 2026 report by EV Charging Stations. Every charger in the network carries both a CCS1 and a NACS cable, making it one of the clearest examples yet of dual-standard charging becoming the norm in the United States.
Network at a Glance
- 109 locations and 910 stalls across 21 states, with California newly added.
- All chargers are rated at 400 kW, each with one CCS1 and one NACS (SAE J3400) cable.
- Hardware is split roughly evenly between ABB A400 and Alpitronic HYC400 units.
- Average pricing is $0.47/kWh on-peak and $0.29/kWh off-peak, with a 10% discount for Walmart+ members.
- 118 sites are under construction, with 200 locations projected by February 2027 and more than 450 stations planned in total.
Dual Connectors as Standard
By fitting both CCS1 and NACS cables to every charger, Walmart avoids the question of which connector to back. It serves Tesla drivers, new NACS-equipped models from other brands and the large installed base of CCS1 vehicles at the same stall.
What It Means for Buyers
For operators and property owners, the lesson is to plan for both connectors. For distributors selling to drivers, it confirms ongoing demand for both NACS and J1772 home charging and for adapters. See our US market page for NACS, J1772 and adapter products.
