Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure
Description: Description of the project
WattEV is planning to build an electric truck charging depot in Salem, Oregon, off Interstate 5, with the capacity to power approximately 40,000 trucks annually.
Free text:
Supported by a $6.5 million grant from Oregon’s Department of Environmental Quality, the $10.6 million project is expected to be operational by mid-2025. The Salem facility will feature 25 Combined Charging System (CCS) chargers and five Megawatt Charging System (MCS) chargers, allowing for rapid charging of trucks in as little as 30 to 45 minutes. This depot is part of a larger initiative to create a network of charging stations along the I-5 corridor, facilitating the transition to electric trucks from the Mexican border to Washington. The project aims to improve air quality and support local transportation needs, contributing to Oregon's goals for zero-emission vehicle infrastructure. See [[Solar-Powered Truck Charging Depot]]
