EV Realty Acquires Industrial Property for Electric Truck Charging Hub in Ontario, California
The new site will provide 9 MW of charging power and is expected to break ground in 2027.
EV Realty has acquired an industrial property in Ontario, California, to develop a new high-power charging hub for heavy-duty electric vehicle fleets. The company confirmed that construction on the site is expected to commence in 2027.
What Happened
The newly acquired site is located on Philadelphia Street in what EV Realty describes as the West Coast’s largest warehousing submarket. The property is strategically positioned near the east-west SR-60 and north-south I-15 freeways, serving freight operations connected to the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, as well as intermodal facilities in Los Angeles and San Bernardino. The location is also three miles from Ontario International Airport, a top-10 cargo airport in the United States. EV Realty has worked with Southern California Edison to reserve the grid capacity necessary to deliver 9 MW of charging power at the site.
Why It Matters
This acquisition expands EV Realty’s footprint in the Inland Empire, a critical logistics corridor for truck electrification. The company currently operates a 9 MW truck charging depot in San Bernardino and plans to begin construction on a site near the ports in Torrance later this year. According to EV Realty CEO Patrick Sullivan, when the Ontario site comes online, the company will have 27 MW of simultaneous truck charging capacity between the ports and the Inland Empire. Sullivan emphasized that securing power in strategic locations is essential to meeting the growing demand for heavy-duty fleet charging infrastructure.
The Bottom Line
EV Realty continues to scale its heavy-duty charging network with a planned 9 MW hub in Ontario, California. Construction is scheduled to start in 2027, adding to the company’s existing capacity in San Bernardino and its upcoming project in Torrance.
