Licensing Information

charge per kilowatt hour col-
lected by the built-in system,
for which a registered account
is required. You can9t just roll
into FivePine and say <fill
8er up.= Neither location are
<super chargers.=
Tesla, somewhat like
Apple computers, has its
own connecting cables that
do not play well with the
other brands. Yes, you can
use a Tesla station, but you9ll
need to purchase an adapter
for cars other than Tesla.
More critically, even with
an adapter you cannot get
a <super charge,= requiring
your non-Tesla to hook up for
several hours, as many as 16
or 20.
The most visible public
charging station is at Mainline
Station (McDonald9s and
Chevron). There you can
get Level 2 charging, about
14-35 mrh (miles range per
hour) costing $4 per session
or a Level 3 charging yield-
ing about 100 mrh for $7.50 a
charge for any brand.
Every EV comes with
a built-in charging cord
enabling it to connect to
standard 110-volt household
Sisters salutes...
current. Thus, any Sisters
Country campground or RV
park with electric hookup
will get you juice to recharge,
albeit slowly 4 in the range
of 2 to 6 mrh 4 essentially a
trickle charge.
Employers in Sisters are
getting in on the charging act
as a recruiting incentive and
employee perk. Among them
are Laird Superfoods with
two Level 2 chargers, and
Personalized & Compounded
Nutrients which provides
employees a single Level 2
port. Similarly, Sisters Inn &
Suites makes its Level 2 char-
ger available for guests as
being good for business.
EV sales in the U.S. are
expected to grow from 1.4
million units in 2020 to 6.9
million in 2025, according
to London-based Frost &
Sullivan, a prominent global
forecaster. That9s a 393 per-
cent increase in five short
years. Oregon is a trend-
leader in electric vehicles,
meaning Sisters will neces-
sarily have to increase its
availability of chargers.
Environmental activist
Scott Bowler, a resident of
Sisters and Oregon National
Desert Association9s 2020
Conservationist of the Year,
hopes the City will take into
account the growth of elec-
tric vehicles and the need for
more charging stations in its
developing Comprehensive
Plan. Bowler would like to
see free charging stations at
City Hall, Sisters Library,
and Sisters High School, for
starters.

I would like to salute
Rod Robinson and all the
people at Sisters Rental and
Robinson & Owen Heavy
Construction, along with
Neil Fendall at Sisters High
School, for their steadfast
connection and support of
Astyn Burning.
The story shared in the
March 17 edition of The
Nugget is a wonderful
example of how one, two,
or a few caring people can
make a profound difference
in the life of a young person.
Also, a shout out to Astyn
for his diligence to complete
19 credits in his senior year
to reach the 24 needed to
graduate.
Congratulations!
