MILPITAS, Calif. – TurnOnGreen announced that it had installed four public access charging stations at 975 Morning Star Drive in Sonora, CA. Through a site licensing partnership with the Sunrise Hills Commercial Association, TurnOnGreen will install, operate, and maintain electric vehicle charging infrastructure that will provide EV charging services to the businesses, residents, and visitors of Tuolumne County and the City of Sonora. The project features multiple high-power, networked EVP700G Level 2 EV chargers that can be activated using the TurnOnGreen App, RFID cards, or a unique QR code on each EV charger.

The city of Sonora is a premier California tourist destination located in the heart of Tuolumne County, 60 miles from Yosemite National Park and 130 miles from San Francisco.
