Car Charging Group Completes Installation of Electric Vehicle Charging Stations at Mall of America

"Installing EV charging stations at the most visited mall in the nation is just Car Charging Group's latest rollout of EV infrastructure," said Car Charging Group CEO Michael D. Farkas."We are continuing to negotiate with residential property owners, parking garages, businesses, shopping malls and other public parking areas to coordinate the best site for EV chargers."

"The EV industry is expanding and Mall of America views the installation of EV charging stations as a necessary amenity for our shoppers, as well bolster our efforts to create a high performance green facility," said Dave Haselman, Executive Vice President, Mall of America.

Mall of America stations are Level II, 240 volt, ChargePoint Networked Charging Stations for electric vehicles, which are manufactured by Coulomb Technologies, the leader in electric vehicle charging solutions.

Car Charging Group is providing electric vehicle charging stations at no cost to property owners, while retaining ownership, due to aid from government tax incentives, subsidies, loan guarantees and grants.

"The addition of high-profile retail partners like Mall of America provides great momentum behind our mission to build out a nationwide infrastructure," added Car Charging Director of Sales, Brian Golomb. "The world's first affordable, mass-produced EVs are on the road and more are coming every day. By utilizing our services our clients are ready for them."
