SAN FRANCISCO: BTC Power will add Tesla's standard to its electric vehicle chargers next year, its chief executive told Reuters on Tuesday, days after Ford and General Motors sent shockwaves through the industry by adopting the technology.

A national EV charging network is key to addressing worries about range and luring customers away from combustion engine driven vehicles and BTC's decision accelerates Tesla's push to dominate the nascent yet fast-growing industry. Santa Ana, California-based BTC has sold more than 22,000 chargers - more than half of them high-speed ones - to charge point operators, fleets and retailers, and counts Electrify America, Ford and Amazon.com among its customers.

Along with the backing of the two Detroit automakers, that also helps Tesla chief Elon Musk's push to upend the Combined Charging System favoured by the Biden administration.
