EV Charging Where Education Thrives
Meet increasing on-campus EV charging with our evergreen solutions.
With electric vehicle prices finally, in reach of Millennial and Gen Z buyers, EV charging stations on campus will get plenty of use, now and in the future, as more and more students bring their own EVs on campus. Additionally, colleges and universities are often major employers and have a large carbon footprint, which is rapidly being reduced by EV drivers.
Installing chargers is also a way for schools to increase income. Most already charge for parking passes, with different prices for semester-long, year-long, or daily payments. Colleges could add a choice for an EV parking pass and could offer free parking for a set amount of time and then paid parking by the student/employee for another block of time. Or, a certain number of charges could be included in the EV parking pass.
