ChargeNet opens fast charging stations at Taco Bell
In the USA, ChargeNet Stations has opened its first ultra-fast charging stations at a South San Francisco Taco Bell. More than 100 California Taco Bell restaurants are set to be “electrified” in the next year.
At Taco Bell restaurants ChargeNet says that its stations “innovative” software technology and combine solar energy and energy storage with Tritium’s fast EV chargers. In October last year, Tritium partnered with ChargeNet with the plan to install RTM direct current (DC) fast chargers at Taco Bell restaurants.
Tritium CEO Jane Hunter noted that “This ChargeNet Stations site sets a new standard in convenient charging, pairing cutting-edge Tritium fast charger technology with on-site solar, battery storage and the opportunity to rest and recharge with a warm meal from Taco Bell.”
“Call it quick food, quick charge,” said ChargeNet Stations CEO and Founder Tosh Dutt. “You can get an EV charge and a chalupa all in one easy stop.”
The partnership with Taco Bell leverages funding from the California Energy Commission’s California Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Project (CALeVIP) and the California Public Utilities Commission’s (CPUC) Self-Generation Incentive Program (SGIP).
The company says it will be expanding to other brands, which will soon be announced.
