On Friday, March 13 2015 Asheville North Carolina’s first DC Quick Charger was powered up for the first official time! This charger has been in the works for many months and finally it is available for anyone with a plug in vehicle to access and charge up in as little as 30 minuets!
This new Eaton CHAdeMO charging station is located on the campus of Asheville-Buncombe Technical Community College.
The event was attended by local EV owners and local and regional leaders in the Electric Vehicle industry including representatives from:
AB Tech
Land of Sky Regional Council/Clean Vehicles Coalition
Nissan North America
Eaton
Duke Energy
Watch a video of the inauguration ceremony below.
The event also made the local news. That is my blue Leaf featured in the news broadcast 🙂
The location also includes two Level 2 Eaton chargers as well.
So the next time you are passing through Asheville please stop in and charge your EV at this new Chargepoint linked charging station 🙂
