Friday November 22, 2013 Today I met a San Francisco cop. We chatted while he finished charging his LEAF at the recently installed Quick Charger at the new Market Street Whole Foods in San Francisco. Bill lives a good 60 miles from San Francisco, so he needs to get some juice to make his trip home after work.

Coulomb Technologies unveiled San Francisco's first ChargePoint America charge stations yesterday in a Priority Parking lot along the Embarcadero. Free Juice Bar explicitly sells charge stations to offer free power. Mayor Newsom and many city employees were there, along with large signs and representatives of MasterCard.

In case of power outage at home, the DC pins in the charger can send juice back into the house, keeping the lights on. For its part General Motors—the power behind Chevrolet and GMC—is now set to work with San Francisco-based Pacific Gas & Electric to test forthcoming GM electric vehicles as on-demand power sources for homes.

I am pleased to participate in the EV Project, which came late to the San Francisco Bay Area, and happy to get my tax-payer funded charger and DC Fast port. They’ve kept my LEAF juiced, after all. Coulomb and Ecotality sometime soon won’t be able to leverage taxpayer money to keep other manufacturers at a disadvantage.

And since even the speediest DC chargers take roughly 30 minutes to juice up an EV, drivers and passengers have time to kill, including enough time for a bite. The company hasn’t cited exact numbers of how many DC chargers it hopes to open, but 7-Eleven operates about 9,400 stores in the United States, and nearly 600 more in Canada.
