Dandy Mini Marts has installed its first EV chargers, Tesla Superchargers, at its store in Elmira, New York.
Dandy Mini Marts’ Elmira store now offers 12 250 kW Superchargers that are open to Tesla and NACS-enabled EVs with CCS compatibility. The Superchargers came online last month, according to Dandy.
Dandy Mini Marts is headquartered in Pennsylvania and has over 60 locations across the Northeast, and its plan is to install more EV charging stations.
“We’re thrilled to bring electric vehicle charging to our Dandy locations,” said Dyson Williams, vice president of Dandy. “As we continue to grow, we’re committed to innovating and providing convenience for everyone, whether they’re fueling up or charging up.”
Dandy’s location in Elmira “sits between several metropolitan areas in the Southern Tier of New York, such as Corning, Watkins Glen, Ithaca, and Binghamton, where there is a sufficient market of electric vehicle owners.”
However, there hasn’t been sufficient EV charging infrastructure in that area – according to the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority, Dandy’s Supercharger will be the only convenience store with an EV charging station within a 50-mile radius.
