Solar Energy USA of Alpharetta plans to introduce solar powered electric vehicle charging free to the public within the next couple of weeks. The company, which runs its headquarters entirely on solar power, is extending the plug outside to refuel electric cars for free.

Company spokesman Michael Chance said the station should be operational by mid-December.  Solar Energy USA's office is at 7565 Industrial Court, just off McFarland Road. The level 2 charging station will fully refuel a Nissan Leaf, Chevy Volt, or another plug-in EV in four to eight hours.
