Royal Farms Deploys EV Charging at Stores

Royal Farms announced the addition of 76 electric vehicle (EV) charging ports at 23 store locations.

The charging stations were added by Blink Charging Co., a global owner, operator, provider and manufacturer of EV charging equipment and services.

The Baltimore-based convenience retail chain now offers its guests Blink’s state-of-the-art DC Fast Chargers (DCFC) at locations throughout Maryland and Delaware. Additional store locations will will also receive charging infrastructure to  total over 100 EV charging ports. 

The chargers, which are owned, operated and maintained by Blink, were funded in part through the Maryland Department of the Environment’s Electric Corridors Grants Program and Delaware’s DNREC Division of Air Quality.

“It’s exciting to be able to offer Royal Farms customers yet another form of convenience and support, while also supporting the adoption of sustainable transportation in general,” said Tom Ruszin, Fuel and Environment Leader for Royal Farms, in a statement. “The addition of these Blink chargers has significantly expanded the charging capabilities to much of our network and Royal Farms looks forward to working with Blink as we continue to respond to customer needs throughout the mid-Atlantic region.”
