XCharge NA just launched New England’s fastest charging site

XCharge NA and Cellerate Power have brought online what they say is New England’s fastest EV charging site in Vermont, right at the base of Stratton Mountain Resort.

The site opened to the public in late October 2025 and offers 400-kilowatt ultra-fast charging to a part of the state that previously topped out at much slower speeds.

The site is powered by XCharge NA’s C7 Ultra-Fast Chargers, which can deliver up to 400 kW — about two to three times faster than most other fast chargers in the region. Cellerate Power says the nearest alternative fast-charging option is about 30 minutes away and limited to 150 kW for CCS-equipped vehicles only.

By contrast, the Winhall site supports both NACS and CCS connectors, meaning it can serve virtually all EV models.

Cellerate Power, a Vermont-based company focused on expanding equitable access to infrastructure, says the project aims to make EV travel more practical in a state where cold winters and mountainous terrain can amplify range anxiety.

The C7 chargers also feature large 21.5-inch screens, which XCharge NA and Cellerate Power claim can enhance the charging experience while promoting local economic development.

Aatish Patel, cofounder and president of XCharge NA, says the Vermont deployment marks the first North American installation of its C7 Ultra-Fast Chargers. “It will expand access to fast charging in regions where it was previously unavailable and offer drivers a more efficient, reliable charging experience.”

The charging station is located at 40 VT Route 30 in Winhall, Vermont, 05340, at the base of the Stratton Mountain Ski Resort access road, making it a convenient stop for locals and travelers heading to and from southern Vermont’s ski and recreation areas.
