JOJO Superfast EV Charging and XCharge North America (XCharge NA), the North American subsidiary of XCHG Limited (Nasdaq: XCH), announced a strategic partnership to deploy a high-power electric vehicle charging network across Illinois. XCharge NA will oversee each site from concept to completion through its turnkey solutions team, while JOJO Superfast will support deployment of the charging infrastructure.
The partnership will add 800kW of ultra-fast charging capacity across nine initial locations in Illinois, with sites positioned at Menards stores throughout the state. Each location will include four C6 Smart DC Fast Chargers, providing eight charging ports per site.
To mark the network’s launch, JOJO Superfast held a formal ribbon-cutting ceremony yesterday at the Menards in Crestwood, the first site to become fully operational. Attendees included Joe Sheehan, CEO of JOJO Superfast; Alex Urist, co-founder and senior vice president of marketing at XCharge North America; Ken Klein, mayor of Crestwood, Illinois; Daryl Richardson, new business manager at ComEd; and Dennis Esquivel, electric vehicle policy advisor at the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency.
The companies said the deployment demonstrates how state and utility incentives, combined with manufacturers, operators, and state agencies, can convert subsidies into near-term community infrastructure. The project was supported through:
Aatish Patel, president and co-founder of XCharge North America, said: “As an Illinois native, I am incredibly proud to bring this level of infrastructure to my home state. But we aren’t just installing hardware—we are providing Illinois drivers a more efficient, reliable charging experience to replace range anxiety with total confidence.”
Joe Sheehan, CEO of JOJO Superfast, added: “For too long, residents of the South Side of Chicago have been plagued by range anxiety, forcing EV drivers to plan their lives around where they can find a plug. But today, we’re changing that narrative. Our goal at JOJO’s is to build the most accessible ultra-fast network in the state, and XCharge’s unmatched technology and hardware are the keys to making that scale possible. I also want to thank ComEd and the IEPA, whose collaboration with us proves that EV incentives can create something incredibly impactful when everyone works together.”
