堪萨斯城正在建设庞大的清洁充电网络。到目前为止,已经建好的充电站有150个,计划到年底将建立1016个充电站(其中15个是直流快速充电站)。在还没有接受电动汽车的市场建立2万美元的基础充电设施是一项非常有冒险性的项目,但是公司对此持乐观态度。“如果充电站建好了,就会有车来。” KCP&L市场营销和公共事务副总经理Chuck Caisley说。KCP&L希望通过这种办法激励更多的人驾驶电动汽车,从而使公司有更多的客户以挽救目前汽车销量的下滑。而其他的公共设施和汽车制造商对此持观望态度。

Kansas City Power & Light's huge Clean Charge Network is well underway. So far, it has installed 150 charging stations, with a total of 1,016 to be built by the end of the year (15 of which being DC fast chargers). The utility is taking a chance by building the $2- million charging infrastructure in a market that hasn't embraced EVs yet, but the company is optimistic. "If you build it, they will come," says KCP&L Vice President of Marketing and Public Affairs Chuck Caisley. KCP&L hopes it will inspire more people to drive EVs, thus providing the company with more customers to make up for the current decline in consumption. Meanwhile, other utilities and automakers are paying attention to see how it all plays out. Read more at Automotive News.
