name: EVgo API Rate Limits
description: >
  EVgo does not publish specific rate limit figures for its EVgo Inside
  partner API or the PlugShare Station Data API in public documentation.
  Both APIs are accessed via commercial partnership agreements, and rate
  limits, quotas, and throttling policies are established per partner
  during the onboarding process. The PlugShare API is reported to serve
  millions of requests per month across all licensed partners. Partners
  should negotiate specific SLAs, throughput limits, and burst allowances
  directly with EVgo's partnership team.

policies:
  - name: Commercial Partners Only
    description: >
      Both the EVgo Inside API and PlugShare Station Data API are only
      available to commercial partners in the EV industry. No self-serve
      public developer tier exists.
  - name: No Public API Keys
    description: >
      API keys and credentials are provisioned during the commercial
      onboarding process. There is no automated sign-up or instant key
      issuance.
  - name: Authentication
    description: >
      Authentication details are provided to approved partners during
      onboarding. Standard REST API patterns (OAuth 2.0 or API key-based
      authentication) are likely employed based on industry norms, but
      EVgo does not publish the specific authentication scheme publicly.
