An article that appeared in Transport Topics, the official publication of the American Trucking Association, features a discussion of Truck Stop Electrification and Shorepower’s services. 
Shorepower’s Director of Marketing, Alan Bates, is quoted: “There has to be a critical mass of availability to get fleets and owner operators interested. No one will be interested unless they can get to a convenient plug-in spot. What’s needed is a very simple solution.”
The Trucker recently featured an article about Shorepower’s national TSE deployment. 
The article quotes Alan Bates, Director of Marketing for Shorepower, Frank Bio, product manager for Volvo Trucks, Jim McNamara, Communications Manager for Volvo Trucks, Richard Shearing, Director of Daimler Product Planning, and Jerry Warmkessel, Mack Trucks Marketing Manager.
Today’s Trucking writes about the future of the trucking industry, as illuminated by presenters at the Future of Trucking Symposium in Winnipeg. The University of Manitoba Transport
Institute hosted the event and brought together a number of speakers who provided a glimpse of what the future has in store for trucking.
“Truckstop electrification could also play a role in the future of trucking, and Alan Bates of Shorepower Technologies notes his company recently received a grant from the U.S. Department of Energy to expand their network to 50 locations across the States. And Canada is a good market for possible future expansion.”
The Portland ABC affiliate (KATU Channel 2) covered the unveiling of a Shorepower EV Charging Station at Oregon Health Sciences University (OHSU). 
“In an ongoing effort to ‘go green,’ Oregon Health & Science University has now installed an electric car charging station for its patients, visitors and staff. The charging station is located on the fifth floor of the large parking structure across from Doernbecher Children’s Hospital on Southwest Campus Drive.”
Shorepower was discussed in an article titled “Shore power for trucks at truckstops far from dead.” 
Out at truckstops, other, simpler shore power solutions are being installed that may make valuable contributions to conserving fuel, reducing emissions and restoring nighttime quiet to both truckstops and the neighborhoods around them. Back in August, for example, the nonprofit Cascade Sierra Solutions (CSS was awarded a $22.2-million grant from the Department of Energy (DOE) to advance truckstop electrification.) CSS announced that it would partner with ShorePower Technologies to install Shorepower Truck Electrified Parking Space (STEPS) systems for diesel trucks at 50 truckstops in the U.S.
“Each of the fifty truck stops will get about twenty-five STEPS,” said Sándor Lau, development director for CSS. “Fleets need to know they will be available everywhere they go.” Unlike IdleAire’s entirely free-standing system, trucks do have to be equipped with onboard idle reduction systems and/or other devices that may be operated with AC electrical power to take advantage of the STEPS as a power source. CSS noted it will offer a rebate program for truck owners purchasing idle reduction equipment upgrades with electric standby capabilities.. Qualifying devices will be eligible for a rebate of up to 25% of the total cost.
A Discovery Channel News post featured a picture of a Shorepower EV Charging Station at OMSI (Oregon Museum of Science and Industry) in Portland, Oregon. 
Writer Alyssa Danigelis ponders how long it will take for companies to build infrastructure and what the charging experience will be like.
Ben Vitale, president of The Climate Trust, wrote an article about climate change that appeared in Sustainable Business Oregon. 
“Shorepower Technologies installed electric pedestals at six truck stops in Oregon and Washington that allow truckers to power their appliances and heat and cool their cabs using grid electricity instead of idling their diesel engines. The Climate Trust’s carbon finance was essential for installation of the new technology, which reduces carbon emissions, lowers truckers’ fuel costs, generates new revenue for participating truck stop owners, and reduces air and noise pollution. This pilot project was just awarded $22.2 million in federal stimulus money to expand to 50 locations nationwide, in the hopes that it will revolutionize the transportation sector, which generates nearly one-third of U.S. emissions.”
CBC, Canada’s national public broadcaster, aired a news story about the Nissan Leaf, which showed a Shorepower EV charging station as part of Nissan’s national tour which stopped in Vancouver, BC.
PGE’s 2009 holiday e-card features a Shorepower charging station and a message link to “Learn how PGE is supporting sustainable transportation.”
Carolina Newswire issued a release about the Clean Transportation Education Project (CTEP), a coordinated program that will 
conduct 48 workshops across the nation for Clean Cities Coalitions, teaching about biodiesel, ethanol, natural gas and propane, and fuel economy and idle reduction. The workshops will start in the spring of 2010 and continue through September 2011.
Shorepower is mentioned as an alternative fuel technology partner along with Clean Energy, Inc.; the Roundtable on Sustainable Biofuels; the Alternative Fuel Vehicle Institute; Duke Energy; and Progress Energy.
