County of Sonoma Installs Coulomb Charging Station Infrastructure

2 July 2009

The County of Sonoma, CA has become the fourth Bay Area location to deploy Coulomb ChargePoint Networked Charging Stations for electric vehicles. The seven charging stations are now installed throughout the County and will be used for fleet and consumer use.

Along with several regional partners, Sonoma County has applied for grant funding to install up to 200 additional stations in the next two years.

The County of Sonoma covers more than 1600 square miles and has approximately 475,000 residents. Coulomb’s charging stations are available to the public during the day, and will be used to charge county fleet vehicles overnight.

Coulomb’s “Fleet Management Portal” displays performance data and graphs for their plug-in fleet managers. The networked charging stations report greenhouse gas savings and gasoline savings to fleet managers. Coulomb’s charging stations notify drivers and fleet managers when individual vehicles are overdue for charging, when charging abnormally terminates, and when charging is complete.
