Ribbon Cutting Planned For New Electric Vehicle Charging Station

Oct 11, 2023 (0)

Columbus, Neb. – Nebraska Public Power District (NPPD) will partner with Cubby's Convenience Stores for a ribbon cutting event Thursday, Oct. 19 at 10 a.m. to unveil O'Neill's first ChargePoint DC fast charger on the northwest side of Cubby's, at 204 E Highway 20.  

“This is an important step forward and a great addition for O'Neill area electric vehicle (EV) owners, and for visitors passing through the area.,” said NPPD Account Manager Brittney Koenig. “We are excited to partner with Cubby's to add the charging station so we can help grow interest, satisfy demand for users, and alleviate hesitation to purchase EV's because of range uncertainty and lack of charging facilities.”  

The charger is easy to use and is an option for charging an EV in a short amount of time for those traveling long distances. Just 30 minutes of charging with the DC fast charger provides most cars with approximately 70-75 miles of range. 

The public, electric vehicle owners, and all those interested in learning about EVs and charging stations are invited to attend.
