EV trips to Lake Tahoe just got easier
By Louis Hansen, Bay Area News Group
A pilot project is making an electric vehicle road trip in Northern California a little cheaper, easier and with a little less range anxiety.
A fast-charging network, known as Drive the ARC, is bringing more than 50 new electric stations installed at about 25 sites from Monterey to Lake Tahoe.
The network — free to EV drivers with a smart phone app and a common charger, is an international, public-private collaboration aimed at supporting the spread of zero emission vehicles. Many sites are open, and the network is slated for completion this fall.
What, another freebie courtesy of the taxpayer for EV’s.
