“In a quest to make finding a charger easier for electric vehicle drivers, the city of Los Angeles is taking a novel approach: installing EV chargers on light poles on city streets, because the electric infrastructure is already there… Los Angeles has installed 725 light-pole chargers so far, and Sangalang says the street light system can support 3,000 or 4,000 more. And unlike commercial companies that are installing chargers in affluent parts of the city, the city's mission is to select locations that are more inclusive.” |
