We’re turning that stop into something meaningful: a chance to relax, refuel, and enjoy a true Bojangles experience. This is about more than charging vehicles; it’s about redefining the stop along the way.” The chain’s first station in Savannah features a pair of XCharge C7 DC fast chargers offering a total of four ports—two CCS1 and two NACS. According to the charge manufacturer, the all-in-one stalls don’t need a separate cabinet and can output up to 400 kilowatts at a maximum of 500 amps, but according to the PlugShare listing, the dispensers at the Bojangles on 4401 Ogeechee Road are limited to 240 kW. On-site contactless card readers are available. The quick-serve chain aims for an uptime of over 97% for its current and upcoming EV chargers. The company partnered with Energy and Environmental Design Services and XLR8 America to develop, install, and maintain its growing EV infrastructure. * * * What do you think?
