Airbnb and ChargePoint collaborate to support sustainability goals by making it easier and cheaper to install EV chargers. From 2022 to 2023, searches with our EV charger filter grew by more than 80 percent. Airbnb and ChargePoint offer US hosts discounts on chargers and installation services. The offer includes up to 36% off select models and $100 off installation, plus an additional $200 discount for the first 1,000 hosts. California, Florida, Texas, Arizona, Washington, and North Carolina are the most popular states for EV charger searches in 2023.
The partnership comes at a time when guests increasingly seek easy access to EV chargers. According to Airbnb’s internal data, listings with EV chargers are more often booked and generate more income. This initiative is part of Airbnb’s ongoing efforts to help hosts take more sustainable actions and reduce emissions. Programs in the US, France, the UK, and Spain help hosts make their homes more energy-efficient, and nearly 90 percent of hosts report using at least one sustainable practice.
