The EV charging stations will be built under EV Supply Equipment Deployment Program, for which ECOtality will be the project manager.
Through this program, the company will oversee the installation of 2,750 home charging stations and 30 DC fast charging stations throughout the Bay Area.
Through a $2.2m award from the Air District, ECOtality will provide an EVSE Home Charger Rebate Program to install 1,500 Blink Home Chargers at Bay Area residences, out of the total 2,750 home chargers that will be installed throughout the program.
The Blink Home Charger is a smart charging station that allows for increased cost savings through improved power management, an intuitive set of features, including a seven-inch color touchscreen control panel, and easily configurable design.
