The electric vehicle fast-charge station to be located at Suwanee Town Center will be the first fast-charge station installed by a municipality in Gwinnett, according to city officials.
The dual-head, level-three charging station, expected to be installed by this summer, will be available round-the-clock and capable of providing an 80 percent charge to most electric vehicles in less than 30 minutes. By comparison, level two stations, such as are available in Buford and Peachtree Corners, require approximately four hours to provide a full charge, and level one stations take up to eight hours or more.
Two parking spots at the back corner of City Hall on Savannah Square Street will be reserved for electric vehicles using the station. Suwanee is working to determine rates and availability.
