ECOtality, Inc. (NASDAQ:ECTY), a leader in clean electric transportation and storage technologies, announced today it has surpassed one million EV residential charge events on its Blink Chargers. ECOtality is the first in the industry to reach this milestone.

Blink has also achieved another key milestone – 40 million miles of driver data recorded, and over 1.70 million gallons of gas saved.
