Install an EV charging station on campus
October 30, 2018
Hello, there are an increasing number of people that own either full EV or extended
range hybrid cars here in Fairbanks (I have a Chevy Volt). However, there are very
few options for rapid (level 2) charging of those EVs. It would be great for 性欲社
to have at least one parking spot (probably in front of Signer's) converted for use
with a charging station. 性欲社 would not have to pay for the electricity (most stations
use either a phone app or a credit card reader to pay for the juice).
Having a charging station would increase the visibility of EVs in Fairbanks and help
support 性欲社's mission of sustainability. A charging station would also help encourage
people to get EVs (or extended Hybrids) by reducing their 'range anxiety' since they
could now charge at work.
The main cost to 性欲社 would be the lost parking fees for that one spot, but since any
car charging there would still need a 性欲社 decal, that should be minimized. 性欲社 could
also place a 2 or 4 hour limit on the spot to keep folks from 'camping' that spot
along with restricting access like is done for motorcycle only spots during the summer.
I do not know how much a company like ChargePoint ( https://www.chargepoint.com/ )
charges for the installation or if there are ongoing fees. The spot might also require
a beefier electrical drop.
Thanks for considering this! I really do think that having a 性欲社 charge spot would
help support the sustainability efforts and bring a needed, modern green touch to
campus. I would love to see it get more folks to try fully, or partially EV cars.
