BP Pulse has joined ChargeHub's Passport Hub, adding more than 850 charging points across over 95 locations to the North American roaming network.

The integration allows EV drivers to find, access and pay for charging at BP Pulse sites through the ChargeHub app. The chargers will also become accessible to users of other e-mobility service providers and automakers connected to Passport Hub.

ChargeHub describes Passport Hub as a roaming platform that links charging networks with mobility service providers and vehicle manufacturers. Its purpose is to simplify public charging access by letting drivers use apps and services they already have across multiple networks, instead of registering separately with each charge point operator.

Network reach expands on both sides

For BP Pulse, the agreement extends the reach of its North American charging infrastructure by making it available through more third-party platforms. For ChargeHub, the deal adds another charging network to its roaming ecosystem.

The companies did not specify how many of the 850-plus points are rapid or ultra-rapid chargers. They also did not say whether all of the points are available through every Passport Hub partner. The announcement left those details unspecified.

Sujay Sharma, BP Pulse's vice president of EV charging in the US, said the partnership expands access to the BP Pulse network through trusted roaming partners. He added that charging networks working better together benefits the wider EV ecosystem and is an important step toward accelerating EV adoption.

Simon Ouellette, CEO of ChargeHub, said a network joining Passport Hub signals that the hub model has become the way roaming is done in North America. He noted that the impact extends beyond the ChargeHub app because e-mobility service providers and automakers in the ecosystem can offer their drivers access to BP Pulse fast chargers through connections they already have.

Ouellette also said that when one major network joins, the whole ecosystem improves at once.

Roaming model

The arrangement reflects a roaming model in which charge point operators connect once to a hub rather than building separate integrations with every mobility provider or automaker. For drivers, the intended result is fewer app registrations and broader access to public charging. For networks, the model can widen visibility and payment access without requiring each partner to connect directly.

BP Pulse's addition covers more than 95 locations in North America, but the announcement did not provide a site-by-site breakdown or a timeline for further expansion. The disclosed figure covers charging points, and the companies did not confirm that every point is available through every Passport Hub partner. The announcement also did not name the specific eMSPs or automakers that will offer access.
