Hotel installs free charging stations

Hilton Garden Inn Johns Creek has added two electric-vehicle Blink charging stations. The hotel is the first business in the city to install the free charging stations, which were funded through a grant from the U.S. Department of Energy’s ECOtality program.

Stephanie Cox, area manager for ECOtality, is still recruiting businesses and others to become host sites. The stations will eventually be adapted to require payment for the charges.
