News Bits:

We all have our own favorites when it comes to clean cars of the future. Since I am writing on this site, I think you can tell what mine is. However, there are of course others who think that hydrogen-powered cars own the future. I remember seeing an ad (I think from Ford) in a major magazine about 10 years ago that was about the beautiful fact that hydrogen-powered cars didn’t emit pollution, just water (and heat). 10 years later, I’m yet to see a fancy hydrogen-powered car… wait, actually, I did see one at Abu Dhabi Sustainability Week — I guess I should say that I’m yet to see one on the road.



According to a recent report, there are only 58 hydrogen fueling stations in the US, compared to 5,621 public electric vehicle charging stations (as I’m writing this). I think the 58 number is for the end of 2012 (not that it has changed much since then), so in my title I used the December 18 US charging station total of 5,200 to be as...(MORE)

The Kroger Co. and Ecotality will add more than 200 level 2 quick-charge electric vehicle charging stations and 25 DC fast chargers at Kroger supermarkets across the US.


The companies say the $1.5 million expansion will bring the total number of Ecotality’s Blink chargers at Kroger stores to almost 300.

Kroger says the EV charging stations will be installed at stores in markets with the highest demand, including Phoenix, San Diego and Los Angeles. These stations are in addition to 60 already installed in...(MORE)

I am working on making the Plug Descriptor - into a link to the Plugshare page with the charger centered. I don't have it perfected yet, so this is still in the trial phase! Give it a shot and leave a comment if it works (or if it doesn't)!

As an Aside (Added here on June 9th, 2013) - check out this article on Gas2.org:


Interesting that EV Chargers are being installed at the rate they are - while Hydrogen Filling Installations are not so many or so fast!

12 New Chargers Added 24 hours to Tuesday, April 2nd, 2013


Plugshare lists a total of 16,375 Stations
They use dynamic tracking to add new - and remove redundant, or test stations, but for those that are dropped, or removed, it is done manually, so simply adding in the new additions - does not equal the total numbers, and sometimes - new additions are listed - but need to have their duplicate entries purged. My count is 16,308 Stations. I have not listed all duplicate stations and they may not have purged them yet. I may have counted 1 as a count for one listing - but it might represent multiple chargers, hence some of the differences.


Over the last 24 hours - there have been 9 New Public Chargers added to the PlugShare network, plus 24 New Photos, and 3 New home stations being shared. 

The additions tracked are: 

  • New Public Chargers Added = 9
  • New Restricted Stations added = 0
  • New Photos Added = 24
  • New Home Stations Shared = 3

98  People Checked into Public EV Chargers today. Few Chargers added, Few public uses - but a bit more today than yesterday!
