JNS Holdings Rescues Chicago EV Charging Program
March 25 2015 - 12:29PM
Business Wire
ChargePoint and JNS Holdings Corporation (OTC: JNSH) today
announced one of the largest electric vehicle (EV) charging
installations in the Chicago area is up and running at full
capacity.
The contract was initially awarded by the City of Chicago to
350Green, LLC of California. 350Green allowed the system to fall in
disrepair and ultimately abandoned it, leaving Chicago’s EV owners
limited access to functioning public charging stations according to
Brian Howe CEO & President of JNS Holdings Corporation.
JNS, with prior approval from the City of Chicago agreed to
acquire the charging stations from 350Green. Unfortunately 350Green
left behind a trail of unpaid vendors, and legal issues according
to Brian Howe CEO & President of JNS Holdings Corporation.
Regardless, JNS forged ahead with the acquisition, paying all
vendors and, enduring lengthy and costly litigation.
JNS in conjunction with ChargePoint, the largest EV charging
network in the world, was able to bring over 115 stations back
online to provide Chicago drivers access to public EV charging
infrastructure. JNS is based locally and is experienced with all
aspects of EV charging systems.
“JNS Holdings has shown a commitment to drivers and the EV
industry in their continued effort to bring these stations back
online,” said Scott Miller, Vice President of Sales, North America
East with ChargePoint. “We’re excited to tell Chicago residents and
visitors about these stations and know they will make it possible
for more people to get behind the wheel of an EV and realize their
many benefits.”
“We are fully committed to the Chicago area EV consumer, EV
visitors and will continue to grow the system with more locations
while providing the most up to date technology and service. We
would also like to thank ChargePoint with their invaluable
expertise in assisting us with this endeavor,” said Brian Howe CEO
& President of JNS Holdings Corporation.
Mr. Howe also stated, “As a native Chicagoan I am extremely
pleased to be of service to the community that I live and work
in.”
