Richmond improves access to EV charging stations

Use it then move it. Richmond City Council approved bylaws last night (Mon, Jan 13) aimed at improving access to City-owned electric vehicle (EV) charging stations by introducing hourly charging fees that will come into affect on Sun, Mar 1, 2020.

By applying hourly fees, users are encouraged to charge their vehicle and then move it to make room for other users. The fees were calculated on a cost recovery basis.

Users will pay only for the time they are actually plugged in on a minute-by-minute basis.
