The new partnership expands LAZ’s charging network to 25,000 ports across North America and lays the groundwork for a broader relationship focused on sustainable local transportation.

HARTFORD, Conn. and BOSTON, Oct. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LAZ Parking (“LAZ”) and EverCharge, a wholly-owned subsidiary of indiGOtech (tradename: GO), today announced a joint venture to accelerate the deployment of sustainable EV charging for residents of apartments and condos, with LAZ Multifamily EV Charging Powered by EverCharge SmartPower™ as its first offering. The venture combines LAZ’s extensive parking and real-estate footprint with EverCharge’s SmartPower management technology while establishing a foundation for a broader strategic relationship between LAZ and GO around the future of sustainable local transportation. EverCharge’s proven SmartPower™ technology lets chargers share a building’s available power, allowing up to 5X more ports to be used with the same source power, so more residents can charge without a major electrical upgrade.

The partnership brings together significant physical infrastructure and proven EV charging technology. LAZ operates approximately 2.1 million parking spaces across 5,700 locations in 639 cities, providing a substantial presence in the United States and Canada. EverCharge brings more than a decade of EV charging experience, with patented charging technologies, and operates more than 10,000 installed charging ports across 1,000-plus multi-unit residential sites serving more than 50,000 registered drivers.

Multifamily EV Charging, now available across LAZ’s nationwide footprint, will initially focus on solving the fundamental problem for residents in apartments and condos, also known as multi-unit dwellings (MUD). Unlike single-family homeowners who can often install dedicated chargers, residents of multi-unit properties rely on shared electrical and parking infrastructure, where electrical capacity, installation complexity, and utility upgrade costs can make large-scale charging difficult.

EverCharge’s patented SmartPower™ dynamic load-management technology addresses this challenge by intelligently allocating available electrical capacity across multiple charging vehicles, enabling up to 5X more ports to be used with the same source power. This lets property owners expand charging capacity within existing grid constraints, reduce expensive infrastructure upgrades, while satisfying many more tenants. EverCharge’s EVO3 Level 2 chargers are best-in-class for reliability, with an industry-leading 55 Degree Celsius temperature rating that no other competitor has to date. Combined with LAZ’s parking-management capabilities and relationships with property owners and operators, Multifamily EV Charging is designed to provide a scalable, turnkey solution for residents’ EV charging and to help more people make the switch to electric.

Multifamily is the starting point. The strategic relationship also creates opportunities beyond the initial MUD market. GO is developing an integrated sustainable local transportation ecosystem built around three interconnected layers: energy, vehicles, and intelligent orchestration. GO’s EverCharge provides the intelligent energy infrastructure, GO’s patented SmartWheels™ enable roomier, smoother electric and autonomous vehicles, and GO Loop operates intelligent transport with vehicles and charging infrastructure to bridge drivers, riders and transportation demand for communities.

“LAZ has always been about more than parking. We connect people with the places they’re going, and the future is charging right where people park,” said Alan Lazowski, Chairman and CEO of LAZ. “Our joint venture with GO expands our charging network to 25,000 ports across North America, and we’re just getting started. Our broader relationship with GO also gives the opportunity to explore how the places we operate can grow alongside electric and autonomous vehicles.”

“Multi-unit dwelling (MUD) charging represents one of the largest infrastructure opportunities in the transition to electric transportation,” said John Lin, CEO of EverCharge. “We’re the leader in deploying intelligent charging for this market, and we’re excited to work with LAZ to bring our platform to substantially more properties and drivers.”

“We’re rethinking the infrastructure that powers local transportation,” said Will Graylin, Chairman of GO. “Our vision for this relationship with LAZ is to show how real estate, energy, vehicles and intelligent orchestration can converge to create a more sustainable and efficient transport ecosystem for urban communities.”

As transportation becomes increasingly electric, connected, and software-managed, GO and LAZ will start with MUD customers’ needs and explore the right charging and battery-swap infrastructure for commercial fleets, ride-hail, and delivery services.
