General Motors’ energy solutions division, GM Energy, is rapidly strengthening its position as a key enabler of the company’s all-electric future. In just 18 months, GM Energy has recorded significant momentum—reporting 30% month-over-month revenue growth and a fivefold increase in sales volume for its charging and energy products since January 2025.
The update came from Wade Sheffer, Vice President, GM Energy, who highlighted the division’s growing impact in expanding access to reliable, convenient EV charging and energy management solutions across the United States.
“GM Energy was created to remove barriers to EV ownership and empower customers to take control of their energy use,” Sheffer said. “Our progress reflects how quickly customers are embracing smart energy solutions that make electric mobility simpler, cleaner, and more efficient.”
According to GM, seven out of ten GM electric vehicles are now sold with a GM Energy product, including nearly 100,000 charging adapters sold to date.
Expanding Energy Access Nationwide
A year after expanding its product portfolio across all 50 states, GM Energy now offers 10 innovative products, including:
- Vehicle-to-Home (V2H) bi-directional charging technology that allows compatible GM EVs to power properly equipped homes during outages.
- The GM Energy PowerBank, a home energy storage system that can store electricity from the grid or solar panels.
- Universal charging adapters to help customers connect across different charging standards.
Driving Public Charging Infrastructure
GM Energy is collaborating with EVgo, Pilot, and ChargePoint, and has co-founded the IONNA joint venture with other leading automakers to expand public charging access. GM EV drivers currently have access to over 250,000 charging stations across North America, with a target to deploy 35,000 GM Energy-invested fast charging stalls by 2030.
GM says its charging sites consistently rank among the top three networks for customer experience, offering convenient amenities like restrooms, food options, and weather-protected setups—designed with truck and long-distance EV users in mind.
Integrating Energy and Mobility
Beyond charging, GM Energy is working closely with utilities nationwide on programs such as free overnight charging in Texas and vehicle-to-home pilot projects in California that pave the way for vehicle-to-grid (V2G) capabilities—allowing EVs to supply power back to the grid in the future.
The company is also aligning its operations with the North American Charging Standard (NACS), ensuring smoother compatibility across future GM vehicles. The upcoming 2026 Cadillac OPTIQ and 2027 Chevrolet Bolt will be the first models equipped with native NACS inlets.
“We’ve given GM a seat at the table for major decisions that shape the EV industry,” Sheffer added. “From grid resilience to charging standardization, our work ensures that GM customers stay at the forefront of innovation.”
With its integrated approach, GM Energy continues to position itself as a pioneer in the convergence of mobility and energy, reinforcing General Motors’ vision of an all-electric, zero-emission future.
