Last thing I want to do is give McDonald’s a free plug (I avoid their food like pinkberry and the plague!) - and must we remember that Walmart did it back in the mid 90s? I’m not sure what their target demo is, but something tells me its not a CTO in Silcon Valley.
Mcdonald’s will open its first ‘green’ restaurant in cary, north carolina, USA. Constructed from eco-friendly materials and technologies, the restaurant will include ChargePoint™ networked charging stations from coulomb technologies, a benefit for those of you out there with electric cars. By partnering with novacharge the new mcdonald’s will give electric vehicle drivers somewhere to recharge their vehicles
while having a meal. The ‘greener’ mcdonald’s is set to open july 14th.
Why must McDonald’s go down this path? Probably to encourage the more eco friendly to visit their restaurant and eat their delicious food. What does one do when your car is charging for one hour in the parking lot?
Chargepoint charging system at Mcdonalds
A double quarter pound with cheese, fries, chicken nuggets, and a shake. *shudders*
McDonalds is on the bottom of the list for fast foods for me, but having a free plug in may change that.
Neat. I actually like their coffee.
dont lie. you like their apple pies
it takes 2 hour to charge your car, so you stuck @ McDonalds eating 20 Big Mac to kill time.
This is great! You can recharge the EV, refuel your body, and sober up all at the same time.
