7-11 is opening 500 EV charging stations by the end of 2022

As if we needed more of an excuse to drink coffee from 7-11.

Now you can work on your Jay and Silent Bob cosplay while waiting for
your EV to charge.

7-11

It wasn't that long ago that people's biggest fear about owning an
electric car was not having anywhere to charge it while they're on
the go. That concern has mostly been alleviated thanks to several
nationwide brand-agnostic charging networks like EVGo and Electrify
America.

But, this being America, more is always better, so there's a new
player entering the EV charging game, and it's 7-11. Yeah, that 7-11
with the questionable hot case foods and the grumpy employees and the
menthol cigarettes. The convenience store chain announced Tuesday
that it will be placing 500 EV chargers at 250 stores in the US and
Canada by the end of 2022.

OK, but if they can't keep the Slurpee machine up and running, what
kind of charging can users expect? Well, we don't know, and 7-11
isn't saying, but we do know that they will be DC fast-chargers, and
it looks like they'll be supplied by ChargePoint, so we'd bet on
anything from 60-ish kilowatts to 125 kilowatts.

These new chargers will join 7-11's small network of 22 charging
stations at 14 stores in four states, and the whole thing is a part
of 7-11's ongoing work to reduce its carbon footprint.
