Chargers are coming to some of the coffee shops along a route in Colorado, Utah, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington.
But even if this coffee-meets-battery news isn’t a major infrastructure development on the same scale of the federal plans,, a senior analyst with Atlas Public Policy, says that smaller steps like this are still good. “They’re very important,” Di Filippo says. “This kind of corridor charging [along travel routes] is pretty accepted among most professionals in the field to being really critical to supporting mass adoption [of EVs].
Compared to companies like EVgo, Electrify America, and Tesla’s own charging network, ChargePoint is less known for serving travel corridors, Di Filippo says, and are more closely associated with retail locations or people’s workplaces.The charging power of the stations to be installed is a key factor in how helpful they will be. A Volvo representative notes via email that “Volvo will be using a mix of ChargePoint DC equipment including their Express Plus and Express 250 units.
An early map of the project from Volvo shows the network snaking across Colorado, Utah, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington.
