I noticed a thread about dicscounts on meals at truckstops turned to a shorepower discussion, so I thought I would start a new topic about it.
Although my truck is equipped for it, I have yet to use it.
Here's what I have found so far..

The locations list is old, I know of a few that are up and running that are not on the list.

Shorepower Technologies
designs, manufactures and operates transportation electrification equipment for: Truck Stops (TSE), electric Transport Refrigeration Units (eTRU) and Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE). Shorepower Technologies is known best for its Truck Stop Electrification power service at over 1,800 parking spots at 62 U.S. locations, where long-haul trucks and refrigerated truck trailers can draw power from the grid rather than idle their engines when parked. Electricity is a clean inexpensive power for appliances drivers use during rest periods, as well as engine block heating or trailer refrigeration. Shorepower is popular with RVs for charging batteries or staying overnight.

Ditto the campgrounds, plus at truck stops and when I pull up in my driveway, I have a 30 amp pedestal I plug the truck into...DR unit.

I just bought a Plug that goes into 30 amp RV receptacle at RV park and allows a regular extn cord rated at 15 amps to plug in. Haven't tried it yet but should run AC fine
