Boston is getting a nice large EV charging network via Coulomb Technologies' ChargePoint stations. The more than 150 chargers will mainly be located within the Route 495 Beltway.
The news was part of a joint statement released by Coulomb and BMW, whose Active E all-electric vehicle, i3 and i8 are all on the way in the next couple years. The automaker was assuring Boston drivers that they'd have plenty of places to recharge by the time the plug-in vehicles launch.
Of course, Coulomb's ChargePoints can charge any EV, so this is also great news for all non-BMW EV drivers who find themselves on the 495 Beltway.

As Boston continues to position itself as a cleantech cluster, moves like this will keep it on the forefront. Excited to see where investments in infrastructure like this take us.
