Jacksons Food Stores has teamed up with OnPoint EV Solutions to implement Level 3 public EV charging stations starting this summer. The companies broke ground on the project on March 14.
OnPoint’s chargers, which include a solar canopy, high speed internet services, security cameras and digital kiosks, integrated with Jacksons and OnPoint’s mobile app, will be installed in the following cities:
Idaho:
- Meridian
- Nampa
- Fruitland
- Nampa
California:
- Rialto
- Norco
Washington
- Ellensburg
- Spokane
- Spokane Valley
These sites are expected to deliver fast charging to thousands of EV drivers traveling the I-84 corridor in Idaho, the I-15 corridor in southern California, and the I-90 corridor in Washington State daily.
OnPoint will initially deploy 4-180kW public direct-current fast-chargers (DCFC) connectors across these nine Jacksons Store sites.
“Adding EV Charging to Jacksons stores gives even more drivers access to best-in-class services like fresh food, beverages, groceries, clean restrooms and, of course, the very good chance they’ll be offered a free banana,” said Cory Jackson, Jacksons Food Stores President. “Electric Vehicle owners embrace innovation, making them a great fit with the Jacksons brand and all its offerings. Let’s go!”
“By delivering fast speed Wi-Fi connectivity at these Jacksons stores and OnPoint’s EV chargers tied to the OnPoint EV app, which can be downloaded from either the Apple or Google Stores, we are looking to improve the entire EV charging experience,” said Rolly Woolsey, co-founder of OnPoint EV Solutions. “In the near future, EV customers will be able to reserve a charging session and link to the Jacksons store app to preorder services and get curb-side delivery.”
OnPoint EV Solutions charging stations, manufactured in the U.S. by BTC Power, will provide up to 360kW for a single car, with a minimum of 180kW charge when both dispensers are in use. EVs will be able to recharge their cars in 20-30 minutes from 20% to 80% capacity depending on their charge acceptance rates.
Charging Stations will be available 24 hours a day, every day and be competitively priced with a guaranteed uptime.
The nine Jacksons OnPoint EV Charging sites are targeted to come online by summer 2025, with many more sites to follow in late 2025 and into 2026.
Since John D. Jackson founded Jacksons in 1975 as a single service station, the family-owned company has grown to be a nationally recognized chain of 300-plus company-operated convenience stores in Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, California, Montana and Utah under the Jacksons Food Stores and ExtraMile by Jacksons Convenience Store brands.
