A Starbucks store in Grand Junction is among three locations in Colorado that have installed electric vehicle chargers.

The Starbucks at 624 Rae Lynn St. installed four direct current fast chargers.

The installation is part of an effort to provide chargers at 15 Starbucks locations along a 1,350-mile route between Denver and Seattle — about every 100 miles. Chargers also were installed in Starbucks stores in Broomfield and Silverthorne.

Starbucks joined with Volvo Cars and ChargePoint on the project. Drivers of electric vehicles equipped with standard receptacles will be charged a fee. Drivers of Volvo electric vehicles may use the chargers for free or at preferred rates.

“EV charging should be as easy as getting a great cup of coffee — and now it can be,” said Michael Kobori, chief sustainability officer at Starbucks. “We look forward to continuing this partnership with Volvo and ChargePoint, exploring new ways to enhance the Starbucks experience and inviting customers on our journey to become a resource-positive company.”

Starbucks operates more than 34,000 locations worldwide. For more information, visit www.starbucks.com.
