Does Costco have electric car charging stations?

I decided to get a Costco membership for the first time. Will I be able to charge my electric car while I shop?

The availability of car chargers at
Costco
depends entirely on where you live. Some locations have electric car charging stations, but mostly in
California
.
Interestingly, Costco was one of the first big retailers to offer electric car charging stations before 2006. According to The New York Times, Costco had installed 90 chargers in 64 stores by then. Most of those chargers were in California, while some were in Arizona, New York, and Georgia.
Then in 2011, Costco said it would remove electric car chargers due to lack of use.
It seems that today, most Costco locations across the country do not have electric vehicle charging stations. For an accurate list of electric car charging stations near you, check out
