California Hwy 101 Goes Electric

2009-10-01
The process of turning California’s Highway 101 into an electric roadway is beginning, and for a short period of time the charging stations that will be installed can be used for free. Beginning in October, Solarcity will be installing vehicle charging stations alogn Highway 101 between San Francisco and Los Angeles in order to reward those who have already made a move to adopt a cleaner lifestyle with clean technology in their vehicles.

Unfortunately, the free charging stations will be operable only for those driving Tesla Roadster electric vehicles over the next couple of months, but after the first stage of the implementation is complete, universal plugs will be installed to make the electric highway convenient to all drivers with various types of electric vehicles. Of course, once the charging technology becomes fully available to all drivers, the charging service will come at a cost.
