Up to 70 percent cheaper to deploy.

One of the biggest things standing in the way of mass EV adoption is the lack of a reliable charging infrastructure, and the only way to convince the public to buy an EV is to counteract that by installing more chargers. Being able to charge at home is the biggest benefit, but not everyone has the luxury of a private driveway.

And that’s the real beauty of these chargers: they’re cheaper to install and aren’t in anyone’s way. They don’t need to jump through a whole lot of red tape for ground space and wiring, and don’t necessarily require dedicated parking spots that could just get ICE’d anyway . You can parallel park like you normally would, follow the same parking rules that everyone else does, and charge from a power source stemming from pre-existing infrastructure.

One of the pole-mounted charging locations is on Berwick Street, which is adjacent to a residential neighborhood where visitors would probably park to visit someone or stroll to the nearby town center. It doesn’t interrupt the bike lane that’s next to it, and since the cable automatically descends from above, it doesn’t get in the way of pedestrians either.demonstrated how the system works

. You park by the pole, download the AmpUp app , and scan the QR code on the pole to activate one of the two J1772 connectors. It will then lower itself far enough to grab. Then you can further extend it by holding the lock/unlock button on the plug. Once it’s close enough to your car, you can plug in and let the electrons flow. Parking is limited to three hours, but it’s otherwise free — all you pay for is the electricity, which is currently rated at $0.
