Plug In, Plump Up

The roofs over eight parking spaces at the McDonald’s restaurant on Garnet Avenue are covering soon-to-be-operational ChargePoint stations from Coulomb Technologies, Inc. (coulombtech.com). The charging stations will be open to all drivers of plug-in vehicles.

McDonald’s installed the first charging stations in July at a restaurant in Cary, North Carolina. A Coulomb Technologies press release issued at the time stated, “McDonald's will deliver yet another new facet of energy conservation by enabling EV drivers to have a place to recharge their vehicles while enjoying their meal.”
