As more Austinites choose plug-in electric vehicles, the demand for charging infrastructure at workplaces, retail locations, and multifamily properties increases. Installing a charging station will help you attract customers, tenants, and offers a benefit for employees. 

Currently there are more than 110 Plug-in EVerywhere stations at 57 locations. Contact Austin Energy to find out how to connect privately hosted charging stations to the Plug-in EVerywhere network. Locate station locations on

Steps to Get Ready

1. Poll your employees and customers. Guage the interest level by asking “Who already owns a PEV?” and “When might an employee or customer buy one?”
   
2. Contact Austin Energy. Email us your request and we will help get you on your way to understanding electric vehicles, their charging technology and the costs involved. We can also guide you through charging business models and help you find a licensed and experienced contractor.
