    (SFBay Area) Looking for Carpool: Berkeley to Mountain View

    I'm looking for someone to carpool with in the San Francisco Bay area. I live in southwest Berkeley and I commute 4 days a week to the San Antonio Road in Mountain View. My employer offers free EV charging (for now), so my commuting costs are pretty low. I'm looking for to carpool as I'd...

    CBO report on the effect of federal tax credits on EV sales

    From the report: Here's there reasoning on the limits arguement: Wait, What? Can someone explain what the heck they're talking about here?

    San Francisco Bay Area Quick Chargers Getting them sooner

    Ditto what mxp said! Looking forward to using this station if it will be public. Having DCQC at major freeway connections like the Blink near the 101 and the San Mateo Bridge are very convenient. This Intuit station will be on my way home to the East Bay from work and will work superbly if I...

    Just yesterday (09/20/12) I was looking at the Blink app on my phone to check the status of the Blink DCQC in Belmont and I noticed a square box (i.e. DCQC) for the Intuit Menlo Park campus location. It showed L3 outlets at the campus, but not available. Today only the 5 L2 stations at Inuit...

    Nissan Zero Emission Fund

    Didn't see this anywhere on the boards: http://www.plugincars.com/nissan-leaf-owners-sell-co2-credits-fund-installation-quick-charge-stations-japan-122116.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Looks interesting and it would be wonderful if Nissan could implement this in the US...

    Bay area Blink DCFC is on the map!!

    With the L2's nearby, why bother parking in the L3 all day though? Unless they too were booked all day by the e-tron and the VW e-golf. I stopped by here last night as my usual public EVSE location was booked all day too. Left one still out and had red tape around it. There was one Leaf...

    Quick Charge CHadeMo is working in San Francisco East Bay

    I'm currently here at Bishop Ranch and the left plug is working. The screen next to the right says "not in service."

    Official Tesla Model S thread

    Slightly relevant to this topic: I had a interesting exchanging with a Tesla employee on the Dumbarton Bridge today. On the Dumbarton while commuting to work in my Leaf; and he was in a separate car. I was in the center lane and a street-kitted VW GTI rolled up on the right lane. He had his...

    In the midst of all this love for 350, where's Ecotality update? Wasn't the latest that commissioning for the VWERL one supposed to be done last week? That reminds me, I should also go see how Nissan Santa Rosa is doing on their L3...

    PG&E / CPUC - Non-Tiered Time Of Use Rates

    Does anyone know to whom we could talk to get an update on this? I called my the project manager that handled my second meter install and he didn't have any new information on it, although he was aware of it. Told me to check back from time to time...

    Official BMW ActiveE thread

    Anybody been by the Weatherford BMW in Berkeley to see if they have a floor model? I just got a new job and I need to give up my bike for a car for the commute. The ActiveE would be a great fit for me. Wish I had jumped on the registration process sooner!

    I saw in the Jan-Feb newsletter for the store that there are EVSE installed in the parking lot already. Has the L3 been installed?

    Your decision to go E-9B (with PG&E)?

    Yeah, we're constantly frustrated by this. We could really save on gas if we could fund an upgrade of our windows. The E-9B meter install was chump change compared to that upgrade though. By the way, the first real bill came in and the EV account cost matches the previous "bill" I got, but...

    I dropped by VWERL Belmont station and didn't see anything new. Emailed Jason Smith to get a new ETA and make sure they'll be shouting it from the rooftops. Here's his response: Guess we'll have to wait a little longer. I could have really used it yesterday too...

    SF Bay Area EVSE compendium

    I didn't see this anywhere else on this forum, so I thought a general Bay Area EVSE thread might be in order to act as a repository to post information and questions about EVSE options in the bay area. I've found the majority of the public EVSE I've utilized or checked out to be difficult to...

    That does seem odd. Hopefully now that it's just getting hardware in hand the ETA will be closer to his updated prediction. I have to head down to Mountain View later this month and I'd love to be able to utilize the Belmont station. Is Jason Smith going to give you a heads up on this when...

    Your decision to go E-9B (with PG&E)?

    Napa Electric via Ecotality. Details are a few posts above. Ask to speak to Brandon. Another update: got my first "bill." It's actually not a bill: It's a 5 page print-out breaking down the electrical usage in detail. From 1/30/12 to 2/27/12, we used 212 kWh, which costs us $22.19 (fees and...

    SF Bay Area as EV capital with major investment in QC

    On a random whim I decided to call Nissan Santa Rosa and find out the status of getting a DC fast charging station there. I talked to David, their resident Leaf salesperson, and he was a wealth of info! They've already got the setup pre-wired and ready to go, although I didn't think to ask if...
