Dave Packard, president of ClipperCreek, spoke of the driving forces behind the company’s success:
We continue to be the only EVSE manufacturer with product readily available. Our customers have been pleased to find a market tested EVSE, that has been approved by all major car makers, and that can be installed by their own electrician.
However, Jason France, ClipperCreek’s chief executive officer, said he has a general disappointment with the lack of federal support for the charging industry, stating:
The industry is way behind in the planned rollout of public infrastructure. Tax dollar supported programs that were intended to get the needed infrastructure in place are way behind for one reason or another.
ClipperCreek currently ships its charging stations to customers in the U.S., Europe and Asia.
