New EV Charging Plan on Campus
Expanded Access to EV Charging on Campus & New Fee Structure Starting July 1, 2025
Electric vehicles (EVs) are quickly becoming a more popular and sustainable mode of transportation. As adoption increases, so does the demand for accessible and reliable charging options. At Cornell, the Transportation Department is committed to supporting this transition through continued investment in campus charging infrastructure.
Currently, there are 12 Level 2 ChargePoint EV chargers available on campus. However, with growing usage, the existing structure is no longer able to meet demand. In support of Cornell’s sustainability goals and to improve availability for all users—including students, employees, and visitors—the Transportation Department will implement a new fee structure beginning July 1, 2025.
What’s Changing?
The updated pricing model is designed to:
Improve turnover and reduce EV idling time at chargers
Expand access for more users
Support ongoing maintenance and future infrastructure improvements
New Charging Rates Effective July 1, 2025:
Active Permit Holders: $3.50 per hour – Standard rate for locations requiring an annual parking permit; This flat rate applies if you hold a valid annual permit where the charger is located.
Non-Permit Users in High-Demand and Permit Required Areas: An additional $3.00 per hour ParkMobile fee will apply on top of the $3.50/hr. charging rate.
Free Parking Zones: Only the $3.50/hr. charging fee applies—no additional parking fees.
These changes aim to make EV charging more efficient and equitable, while enhancing the overall experience for our campus community and guests.
Questions?

Thank you for supporting a greener future and keeping Cornell on the move.
