Jackson EMC (JEMC) which already has Electric Vehicle (EV) charging stations in Gainesville and Oakwood and other locations in its service area is planning to install one in Jefferson.
JEMC members can charge their electric vehicles at a discounted rate using these “fast chargers” which are part of the ChargePoint network and provide “quicker charging than at-home Level 2 chargers,” according to the electric-op.
“We’re committed to providing options for members who want to drive an EV or are considering purchasing an electric vehicle,” said Christy Queen, Jackson EMC’s director of residential marketing. “Even if you have home charging, these local fast chargers give members a reliable option.”
In addition to the station at the Gainesville and Oakwood offices, they can also be found at JEMC offices in Lawrenceville and Neese. An additional EV charger will be coming to the office in Jefferson next year. Members with a discount code pay $0.15/kWh. The non-member cost to the public is $0.30/kWh.
