First Quick-Charge Station for Electric Autos

The nations first publicly available quick charge station.

“This quick charge station will allow customers to charge their cars in 20 to 30 minutes. They can stop at a rest stop, get a quick bite to eat and they can charge their vehicle very quickly and get on their way down the road. So this is a big milestone for the electric vehicle, a big tipping point for the industry.”

-Jim Piro, President and CEO Portland General Electric

The charging station is a colloborative effort between Portland General Electric, Nissan, and NEC Corp.

“I think it really opens the doors to confidence in drivers moving outside of their local area, and really opens the market up. Not only for the quick chargers, but electric vehicles and the infrastructure that can support them.”

-Rich Moran, NEC Corp of America
