EVgo Welcomes HR and Operations Executive Kim Homenock as Chief People Officer.

"I am thrilled to welcome Kim to our leadership team as we enter an exciting growth phase, and to help us navigate a rapidly evolving charging landscape," said Badar Khan, CEO of EVgo. "Fast charging bridges energy and technology, and Kim's background in both industries will support EVgo's ability to attract and retain the talent and skills we need to continue scaling our nation's public charging infrastructure."

As CPO, Homenock will direct EVgo's HR strategy to scale for growth, including talent acquisition and management, leadership and organizational development while supporting the overall employee experience to ensure EVgo remains an employer of choice in the charging industry. Spending much of her career overseeing globally dispersed teams, Homenock has expertise in building employee engagement programs that cultivate cross-functional connection. She will oversee the implementation of several initiatives to enhance employee experience as the Company continues to scale its workforce alongside its infrastructure buildout.

With over 4,200 fast charging stalls in more than 40 states today, EVgo plans to more than double its network size to reach at least 10,000 stalls by 2029. The Company has nearly 350 employees and Homenock's extensive experience overseeing distributed workforces will be invaluable to support EVgo's future growth as the Company increases roles in construction, engineering, development, operations and maintenance over the coming years commensurate with network expansion.

Homenock comes to EVgo after serving as Chief People Officer of Stem, Inc., a global leader in AI-enabled software and services. While at Stem, she led a global human resources team supporting over 500 global employees and focused on leadership and organizational development, as well as enhancing the employee experience to create an environment that fosters growth, innovation, and operational excellence. Prior to her time at Stem, Homenock held senior leadership positions at Amazon in Devices Software & Services, Transportation, and Operations divisions, supporting more than 150,000 employees through streamlined performance systems and effective employee relations strategies during the height of the Covid-19 pandemic. Starting in 2000, Homenock spent nearly 18 years in global leadership roles in General Electric—now GE Vernova—business divisions. Homenock began her career at Abacus Recruitment PLC in the U.K. after earning a BA from Brunel University London.

"I am honored to join EVgo and help scale its workforce, strengthen leadership capabilities, and support its operational excellence," said Homenock. "EVgo is shaping the technology that powers mobility for millions of people across the country, and I am drawn by their strategic direction and mission. I look forward to working with leadership to realize a vision of effortless fast charging for everyone."
