Electric Vehicle Charging Stations Increasing

Electric Vehicles are getting more charging locations across the United States and around the world.

Public electric vehicle charging stations that take credit card went on-line in November at San Francisco's Pier 27 parking garage. Drivers can use a credit card to charge their electric vehicles. The cost to charge a vehicle all day is normally between two to three dollars.

The first public EV charging station opened this month in Kansas. Last month Minnesota launched it's first EV charging station in St. Paul at First National Bank. The power to charge the vehicles comes from wind & solar energy generation. Plans are for 150 of the stations to be in place in the Twin Cities area in four years.
