Stanford Univ installs new EV Charging Stations

Parking & Transportation Services has installed six new J1722 electric vehicle (EV) charging stations on campus. Two new charging stations were installed at each of these locations: Parking Structure 5, Stanford Visitor Center, and Tresidder Memorial Union. (View Stanford's Parking & Circulation Map [PDF]).

The charging session fee is $3 per hour. The pricing is designed to manage demand and encourage multiple short-duration charging sessions (for example, campus visitors or commuters who may occasionally need to "top off" their battery, as opposed to an all-day charge for a single vehicle).
