Maui embracing electric cars - charging station locations on Maui
Georgina Hunter's post about the use of electric cars on Maui caught my eye. This would be ideal for any Island community. I'm wondering how long it might be before this concept comes to Madeline Island. Thank you, Georgina!
Maui embracing electric cars - charging station locations on Maui
Hawaii is in the perfect position to benefit from solar power, and here on Maui we are ready to start charging those electric cars that everyone wants to own. With some of the highest gas prices in the nation, we are motivated to find solutions to our driving needs.
- Better Place has recently installed 7 charging stations on Maui, and 130 across the state of Hawaii. Since pricing has not been set, they are offering free power-ups through the end of the year. This should encourage more car owners to make the switch to more environmentaly friendly choices. Charging locations on Maui include: The Four Seasons Resort in Wailea; Alamo Rent-A-Car in Kahului; Sheraton Maui Resort in Kaanapali; and Kahana Gateway Retail center.
- 5A Rent-A-Space in Honokawai recently announced they are testing their Level 2 car charging station. It should be ready for the public later this month. They installed almost 2000 panels (600 KW each) which power the retail store and the charging facility, with leftover power to feed back into the Maui Electric Company grid.
