Nov. 9, 2021 —  ��ɫTV has partnered with Electrada, a Cincinnati-based EV charging solution company, to install electric vehicle charging stations across campus and meet a growing need for more charging capacity.

The expanded charging station infrastructure contributes toward ��ɫTV’s campus sustainability goals and commitment to the , which is part of an international network of cities developing a new model for urban sustainability. ��ɫTV was the first organization in Kentucky to join this collective.

“These charging stations are another step in making ��ɫTV a more sustainable campus,” said Tiffany Budd, Sustainability Operations Coordinator. “With electric vehicles becoming more mainstream, this will allow us to adapt our campus infrastructure to meet a growing need for EV charging and also help us in becoming more environmentally friendly by supporting the use of electric vehicles which emit no tailpipe emissions.”

Two dual-port charging stations are already operating in Lot F near the new residence hall and another dual-port station is located in Lot C. Planning is underway to install up to 30 EV charging stations across ��ɫTV’s parking lots and garages. Electrada will own, operate and maintain the EV charging equipment installed.

Kevin Kushman, CEO of Electrada, spoke to this partnership: "Electrada is so grateful to work with ��ɫTV to provide EV charging. If we are to hit the electric vehicle targets outlined by the car manufacturers and the US government then we need more organizations like ��ɫTV to provide access even in these early stages."

The agreement with Electrada lasts for five years with a five-year renewal option. To learn more about ��ɫTV’s commitment to the Cincinnati 2030 District, visit the ��ɫTV Sustainability .
