Sustainability
Easy on the grid: Each L1 PowerPost Charging Station draws a maximum of 16 amps on a standard 120v supply circuit. Utility companies are concerned about the amount of power that Level 2 and Level 3 charging stations demand, especially during peak hours. Electric vehicle sales nearly doubled in 2013 compared to 2012 and are growing at a much faster rate than hybrids did when first introduced in the early-2000's. With this trend set to continue, the concern for power requirements will only grow in magnitude. However, the amount of power required for the L1 PowerPost Charging Station can easily be met with little or no changes to existing power supply infrastructure.
