BlocPower is raising funds to accelerate its work bringing electric vehicle charging infrastructure to underserved communities across the United States. This capital will support the installation of EV chargers at key community-focused locations in Southern California, such as quick-service restaurants and multifamily buildings, as part of a broader strategy to increase equitable access to clean transportation. With this offering, BlocPower aims to extend the impact of its earlier Brooklyn-based EV charging initiatives, expanding nationally in partnership with women- and minority-led developers.

Since 2014, BlocPower has focused on decarbonizing urban neighborhoods by retrofitting buildings with electric heating and cooling systems. With experience implementing clean energy projects across more than 1,100 buildings and thousands of city blocks, the company is now using that foundation to support the transition to electric vehicles in historically excluded communities. Funds from this round will be deployed directly into EV infrastructure projects that deliver environmental, social, and financial benefits—aligning with BlocPower’s triple-bottom-line mission.
