Eaton’s Pow-R-Station Level 2 charging stations with a 220V plug that allows a fast charge are the first of 30 public EV charging stations the City of Raleigh plans to install by September 2011 as part of its rollout of plug-in electric vehicles.
The charging stations located in downtown Raleigh form part of Eaton’s range of products and services that will provide critical infrastructure for the EV corridors and across North America, helping EV customers reduce their impact on the environment.
Eaton business unit manager Tim Old said that this important collaboration with the City of Raleigh will promote sustainability by creating the infrastructure that will help drivers become more confident that they can easily charge their EVs.
"Eaton’s proven technology is helping to advance the aggressive early adoption of clean transportation in Raleigh and throughout the Carolinas. The region is helping to pave the way for broader adoption of EVs throughout North America," Old said.
