Recently, I attended a business seminar in Concord NH at the Grappone Conference
Center.  To my surprise – when I stepped outside, I saw this charging station at
the adjacent Marriott.  I was surprised!  This is the only public charging station
in NH!

The list of all U.S charging stations is listed at:

Looking at the states revealed: 

 

 * Numerous Nissan dealerships.  In Tennessee, almost every public charging station
   is a Nissan dealership.  Smart move- Nissan.
 * California has more than 500 charging stations; this is the largest amount.  
   Most states have less than 100.   Nine states have none. 
 * Harley Davidson in Kansas City, MO has a public charging station.  What are they
   planning?

The Fuel Act sponsored by Sen. Kent Conrad (D-ND) wants to authorize $2 billion 
to selected communities for more charging facilities and incentives to deploy 400,000
EVs. 

This makes me wonder how often these charging stations are used. 

I remember in 1991 when my Dodge Ram 50 ran out of energy.  My solution was to stop
at a house and ask to plug in for a short time.  The homeowner said they were pleased
to help.

Anyway, hope this helps you in your EV travels.

 

**Help Locate Maine Charging Stations  **

Wayne Krauth  of the Portland Council of Governments is  looking to roll out public
charging stations to help promote interest in and adoption of electric vehicles.

If you are a Maine EV driver (or soon to be EV driver!), help us determine how and
where the charging station roll-out will occur.
