"By leveraging our ANS footprint and dealer relationships, Charge can make it simple to switch to an EV or other electrified technology, easing the key pain point of EV ownership - charging - and supporting the growth in EV sales.

Mark Buzzell commented, "Charge's revolutionary approach to infrastructure development - making EV charging stations an economic game changer that helps businesses attract and retain more customers - is very exciting, and I look forward to leading this effort at such a formative moment in the development of the EV space and of Charge as an infrastructure leader."

Mr. Buzzell earned a bachelor of science in accounting from Pennsylvania State University and an MBA in marketing from the University of Notre Dame.
