Revision as of 03:23, 13 May 2017

Many cars now on the road are hybrids or completely electrically powered. The current state of charging stations is not as robust as the network of gas stations that exist in the USA. Due to the limited range and challenges for charging having a uniformed experience for wazers who operate an electric vehicle is important.

Naming

Many of the changing stations are part of larger national networks, similar to gas station brands. The network name should be used first followed by a descriptor of the location.

Some examples of network named locations
ChargePoint - Killington
eVgo - University Mall
SemaCharge - Hannafords

If no network name exists, please use "Charging Station - location/description"
Charging Station - Freedom Nissan
