The Station

Fast hardware in the right place on I-65.

Greenville, Alabama doesn't get much attention from the EV press. But if you're running the I-65 corridor between Birmingham and the Gulf Coast โ€” or cutting across from Mississippi toward Atlanta โ€” it's a critical stop. There's roughly 90 miles of interstate between Montgomery and Mobile with limited fast charging options, and Greenville sits right in the middle of that gap.

Alabama Power's Flo ULTRA station at 400 Greenville Bypass fills that gap with real hardware. Two Flo ULTRA DC fast chargers, each rated at 320 kW, sitting at the Alabama Power business office just off the bypass. The location is easy to find, well lit, open 24 hours, and โ€” on our visit โ€” both stalls were online and available.

The Session

Session start via the Flo app was straightforward โ€” find the station, select the stall, plug in, hit start. No failed handshakes, no error screens, no standing in a parking lot rebooting your phone. It just worked, which in the current state of US public fast charging is genuinely worth noting.

Real-world speeds on our visit came in above 150 kW โ€” solid performance for a non-Tesla public charger on the I-65 corridor. The Flo ULTRA hardware is rated to 320 kW per stall, so higher-acceptance vehicles like an 800V Ioniq 6 or EV6 could pull closer to their vehicle maximums here. On the Hummer EV 2X, you're getting what the truck will accept, not what the charger can deliver.

Pricing at $0.42/kWh is reasonable for Alabama and in line with what you'll see at comparable non-Tesla fast chargers in the region. No time-based fees, no membership required to get a session started โ€” straightforward energy-based pricing.

Location & Amenities

The station sits at the Alabama Power business office on the Greenville Bypass โ€” easy off, easy on from I-65, with no confusing routing through surface streets. Parking is clean, the stalls have adequate space, and the site is well lit for evening and overnight stops.

Amenities on-site are minimal โ€” this is a utility office parking lot, not a Ionna Rechargery. But Greenville has the full range of interstate exit options nearby: fast food, a Walmart, and a Tesla Supercharger about 1.4 km away at 219 Interstate Drive if you need an alternative or want to grab something while charging. For a 20โ€“30 minute fast charge stop, you have enough options within a short drive to make the time count.

"Halfway between Montgomery and Mobile, Greenville is exactly where you need a working fast charger on I-65. This one delivers."

What to Know Before You Go

CCS only. There are no NACS connectors at this station. Tesla drivers should use the Supercharger on Interstate Drive instead โ€” it's 1.4 km away and a better fit. Non-Tesla EV drivers with CCS are well served here.

Download the Flo app before you arrive. The session starts cleanly through the app, but you don't want to be setting up an account in a parking lot after a long drive. RFID card access is also supported if you have a Flo card. Credit card tap is not available at this location, so come prepared.

Two stalls means limited redundancy. If one unit is down, you're on the remaining stall or heading to the Tesla Supercharger nearby. Both were operational on our visit, but worth knowing on a long trip.

Pros & Cons

What Works

  • 150 kW+ real-world speeds โ€” solid for this corridor
  • Easy access off I-65, no confusing routing
  • Clean, well-lit site, open 24 hours
  • App session start worked first try
  • Straightforward $0.42/kWh energy pricing
  • Both stalls online on our visit

What Doesn't

  • CCS only โ€” no NACS connector
  • No credit card tap โ€” app or RFID required
  • Only 2 stalls โ€” thin redundancy
  • No on-site amenities at the station itself

The Bottom Line

A dependable stop on one of Alabama's most important EV corridors.

The Alabama Power Flo ULTRA station in Greenville is exactly what the I-65 corridor needs more of โ€” working hardware, real speeds, easy access, and no drama getting a session started. For CCS drivers making the Montgomery-to-Mobile run or passing through on a longer Southern road trip, this is a reliable anchor stop.

The CCS-only limitation is the one real friction point for an increasingly NACS-dominated market. As the EV fleet shifts further toward NACS, a connector upgrade at this site would meaningfully improve its utility. Alabama Power and Flo should be looking at that timeline.

For now: it's on PlugShare, it works, and it's in exactly the right place. Add it to your route plan for any I-65 corridor run through central Alabama.
