ELEKTROS reviews 10 to 15 charging sites including pizzeria location for driver amenities
By Eve
ELEKTROS Inc. (OTC PINK:ELEK) announced on 26 July 2026 that it is evaluating potential locations for approximately 10 to 15 high speed EV charging stations under its brand. One site under review includes a spacious parking area with a pizzeria, intended to offer drivers a place to dine while charging. The company is also seeking a U.S. based lithium refinery capable of receiving approximately five to ten containers of hard rock lithium per month to support its supply chain strategy.
Why it matters: The pizzeria co-location model signals a shift toward amenity led charging sites that aim to improve dwell time economics, a design consideration for CPOs planning mixed use developments. ELEKTROS's dual focus on upstream lithium supply and downstream charging infrastructure reflects vertical integration ambitions, though execution depends on financing and definitive agreements.
