Overcast skies and lashing rain weren't enough to spoil the launch of a special EV charger in Westside this afternoon.
The unit at Westside Community Centre is the first of its kind in Ireland - a solar-powered unit, with its own battery source rather than relying on the grid.
It offers reduced rates for charging electric cars, and it's particularly aimed at those who don't have a driveway to charge their own electric vehicles. .
David Nevin was there - and he first spoke to Mayor of Galway Mike Cubbard about the importance of providing infrastructure like this.
