Electric Vehicle Chargers are Here!

Electric vehicle chargers are here!

Franklin Wilson, who is heading up Recharge in Rabun, said that many of the electric vehicle chargers planned for Rabun County and the surrounding area are already operational, with construction continuing on the charger in the public parking lot in downtown Clayton.

“The construction crew arrived to pour the footing behind the Post Office and Universal Joint,” said Wilson. “There will be two Level 2 Chargers there, as well as a DC Fast Charger, the only DC Fast Charger in the state.”

Chargers are also at the Beechwood Inn, Fromage in Clayton, Mountain Lakes Medical Center, and the Sylvan Falls Mill Bed and Breakfast.

Wilson said the city of Clayton only had to invest around six hundred dollars into installing their chargers due to a grant through the Department of Energy.
