EVGO

We've been in the 90s lately, and summer is coming so we'd expect AC runs constantly. I have not driven the car much so I charge at EVgo at least once a week. Still on job hunt so next month I might drive more.
BTW, what's PNW stand for? I know it's for a region but could not figure out w/o googling pacific northwest?

Yes! Pacific Northwest it is! I'm in Oregon. We have had a few hot spells this past month, so thank goodness for AC.

EVGO El Dorado Hills,Ca. 4 pumps all down(for days?) EVGO says no idea. People keep driving by and looking. Good Public Relations trying to get customers???/ Nearest pump 7 miles away(if working)

I pulled into the Whole Foods near me yesterday which has the only EVgo station around. It's been offline for over a month but I was happy to see a service tech there working on it. Interesting that he was driving a Ford F150 lightening.

I checked the app today and it still shows as offline. I'm guessing he had no luck.

Drove Tacoma to Redding for wknd. I wasnt looking for EV pump stations but I did notice a Tesla hookup with some others at Sundial Bridge but they were all being used. Not good if you are in a hurry?Also on way back Hyw 5 I pulled into rest area and they had 2 chargers (no brand from distance) they were empty. It seems Rest Area's Nationwide might be a good idea. Also HWY EV pump signs might be good also, yes they are in Apps but this would be a good reminder.

Does anyone know cost of EVGO for 1 hr. A person at pump told me to disconnect at 92% or when output drops because you pay the same price for Hourly whether high or low output. Is this true??Does EVGO Cost vary by State? In Calif. my home PG&E cost me .34kWh which is expensive just trying to break down the math and cost. I also have Solar which helps.
