Santana Row is Silicon Valley’s premier destination for shopping, dining, living, and working. The 647,000 square foot property features more than 70 shops, 20 restaurants, a boutique hotel and movie theatre. In addition to the dynamic retail and restaurant collection, Santana Row offers 615 luxury rental homes and 65,000 square feet of Class A office space.
CarCharging originally deployed EV charging services at the property in 2012 and over the past year, the demand for the services has continued to expand. The services have been consistently utilized, which demonstrates the need for public charging infrastructure.
The additional EV charging services are now located across from the original charging location on Level 1A of the Winchester parking garage.
"Since the initial deployment of the EV charging services at Santana Row, we have continuously, monitored the usage of the station, as we do all of our properties," said Brian Golomb, Vice President of Sales, CarCharging. "In doing so, we were able to determine that the services were consistently being utilized and that the property could support additional EV charging stations."
The EV charging services for Santana Row are provided by Level II EV charging stations, which provide 240 volts with 32 amps of power to quickly recharge an electric vehicle’s battery. To initiate use and payment at this location, EV drivers can easily request CarCharging’s evCharge card online, and attach the small card to their keychain. CarCharging’s evCharge card also allows drivers to use charging locations on the ChargePoint Network. CarCharging’s EV charging stations also accept direct payment via credit card.
