Survey of 110-volt outlets in SF, CA
STATUS - In Progress - Can you help?
Most public EV charging stations don't accommodate conversion EVs that plug into regular 110V wall outlets. For the first time, the SFEVA is surveying parking sites in the City to find places for these cars to plug in.
We have completed inspection of all City-owned garages.
If you'd like to know which garages have outlets, contact us at info2008(at)sfeva(dot)org.
If you see plugs in parking lots or garages, please e-mail info2008(at)sfeva(dot)org to tell us:
- where you saw them
- whether they're near a parking space
- whether a cord between the EV and the outlet would be in the path of pedestrians.
- the date of your observation
We'll work on getting permission to charge later on. Watch this space for survey results, or contact us to hear more about 110V outlets in your area.
we will not share your email address or use it for spam!
