An EV charging station in Cha Am is making it even easier for electric vehicle (EV) drivers to recharge their cars.

 

At the Bang Chak Pump Cha Am (Lemon Green Square) the Provincial Electricity Authority recently opened the PEA VOLTA Charging Station.

 

The station is one of the first in Thailand to include the PEA’s new Autocharge feature which enables drivers who use the PEA VOLTA application to charge their vehicles more easily.

 

With Autocharge, drivers can simply plug their vehicle in and the PEA VOLTA app automatically connects to their user account, automating the charging and payment process.

Give it time and some craft thai will be plugging his car into the hanging wires

I've noticed that it is much easier to charge an EV when there is a charger available.

I've also noticed that its very difficult to charge an EV without a charger.

Or put a generator in the boot ... 

As usual, the reporting misses the important information -- the COST to charge.

There is an EV charging station at Cha-Am at the Shell petrol station on Phetchakasem Road. When I asked several months ago, it was free to charge.

Actually there are at least 6 mapped, so 7 now in Cha Am

7 charging stations within a 30 kms stretch.

As always, if you can't find something, you're not looking very hard.
