Arizona’s GoE3 has announced plans to place 500 electric vehicle chargers along major interstates in the US, with a goal of creating a coast-to-coast network by 2015. The company plans to deploy a mix of Level 2 and Level 3 chargers — allowing it to support a range of different cars — which offer a high 70-Amp current, meaning your car can be fully charged within 45 minutes for $12.50.

The chargers will be deployed at 50-75 mile intervals along the I-40, I-10, I-20, and I-70 highways. The company says that its first 50 chargers will be installed by the 21st of April, with the remaining 450 installed within 18-36 months, and that a route between Tucson and Flagstaff is already in place.

Could the wider availability of power be what the industry needs to become mainstream, and save Obama’s million EV promise?
