I was headed out to Central Massachusetts for an appointment that required some juice for the ride back-and-forth. On my way out west, decided to give the newly installed fast chargers, a try at the Mass Pike service station in Natick.

Much to my surprise, both charges were available, and after some initial set up steps (installing the app and providing a credit card), I was up and running within minutes. The Autel charger pushed out 60 kW and I was up to 80% within 45 minutes. It was a little slower than I would’ve hoped, but it certainly suppressed any range anxiety the trip had in store.

Following the charge, I had it onto Jordan Dairy Farm to explore anaerobic digestion. You can read more about at trip at https://www.facebook.com/jeffreyroy/posts/pfbid0J7jjEb5KEpDxWf1Na8tKZh6eVSHewwBkHiUVQy7SL1tUt6dzXfeG3xwNAvsPv2G8l

Thanks to the team at the Mass Pike for getting a temporary solution in place while we await the arrival of more robust fast charging infrastructure in the next few years.
