Kingston's first charging station designated charging site in this area as part of the Sun Country Highway electric vehicle charging network.
The Canadian company began in early 2012 with a goal to build the world’s longest electric-vehicle-friendly highway.
The 90-amp CS Charging Station was manufactured in Canada and is now ready to serve the needs of electric car drivers in Kingston or just travelling through.
The 90-amp charging station can charge an electric vehicle with enough power for 100 km in just an hour
This Best Western is one of many on the highway 401 corridor where there will be charging stations. Others include Cobourg, Kingston, Cornwall, Peterborough.
Misch pointed out that without business partners such as Best Western (which accounts for 12 of the 50 hotel sites with charging stations in the network), the concept would have never come to fruition. The whole model creates a win, win, win situation he explained.
The charging stations don’t draw power from the grid until they are plugged into a car that is ready to charge then for basically the price of a latte, you can charge a car from empty to full.
