The Town of Carrboro has installed two new EV Charging Stations!
The stations are located at the parking lot of Martin Luther King Jr. Park, 1120 Hillsborough Road, and at the 604 Rosemary St. gravel public parking lot with entrance from Sunset Drive.
Both of these stations offer two charging ports each with SAE J1772 style plugs, so two cars may be charged at once. These stations are in addition to an existing EV Station located in the side parking lot of Carrboro Town Hall, 301 W. Main St.
All three EV Stations are currently free to use. They use the ChargePoint system https://www.chargepoint.com/ for access.
Did You Know? In November 2021, Piedmont Electric Cooperative unveiled a new electric vehicle (EV) DC fast-charging station at the Carrboro Plaza, 104 NC Highway 54, Carrboro, NC 27510. Piedmont Electric Cooperative was awarded funding from Phase 1 of the NC Department of Environment Quality Volkswagen Settlement to install Carrboro’s first DC Fast-Charging station. The Town of Carrboro contributed funding to Piedmont’s match for the grant, as the project aligns with goals to reduce community transportation emissions in the Community Climate Action Plan.
