Portland Airport gets largest charging cluster in the U.S.

Available for free access to employees and visitors, the L1 PowerPost EV stations were chosen for their low energy requirements and offer around five miles of range per hour plugged in – ideal for the long stopovers of vehicles in airport car parks.

Bill Williams, Business Development Manager for Telefonix, EVSE Division, said: "Airports are really taking an aggressive approach to delivering on the need for electric vehicle charging infrastructure. Given that customers parking for 4 hours or more represent over 85% of all occupied spaces at an airport and the fact that airports often have sustainability initiatives in place, it's a perfect fit."
