How many charging stations were lost when Costco removed theirs?
I guess they will set one up every 30 miles. Every 10 miles in northern states due to the cold.
Funding
As part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), the City of Saint Paul received $286,000 of Energy Efficient and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) funding for the purchase and installation of electric vehicles and charging infrastructure. The funding is being used for:
Gap financing to purchase three plug-in electric fleet vehicles.
Purchase and installation of charging stations around the city.
so does this mean that the poor, the elderly, the cripple, (the homeowner/taxpayer) susidizes the rich, the wealthy, those who can afford the hybrids?
So how does this work? A 30-minute stop and $20 worth of electricity? Will they have a Starbucks handy at each rest stop?
