EV charging provider Blink Charging will install 10 new 180 kW dual-port DC fast chargers at a key transportation junction along State Route 111, just north of the US-Mexico border in Imperial County, California.

The chargers will be installed at Imperial Center, a commercial and retail hub that serves thousands of daily drivers along SR-111—an essential north-south artery connecting Mexicali, El Centro, Brawley and the Coachella Valley. The location also offers convenient access to Interstate 8, facilitating east-west travel between San Diego and Arizona.

“SR-111 is a vital transportation lifeline for this region—it connects local communities, international border traffic, and growing commercial corridors throughout the Imperial Valley,” said Mike Battaglia, President and CEO at Blink Charging. “With the addition of these chargers, we’re enabling EV drivers to travel more confidently between Mexico and the rest of Southern California, while also supporting long-haul travelers along the I-8 corridor.”
