Board explores state grant to install employee-priority EV chargers
Summary
Library staff reported an application to Charge Vermont for grant funding for employer-based EV chargers (public chargers not currently funded); incentives from GMP and grant dollars could cover installation and purchase, but annual service fees and grant terms were discussed.
The board discussed an EV charging station proposal tied to a Charge Vermont grant. Staff said "there's no more money for public chargers, but there is money for employee chargers," and that the application targets employer‑based chargers that prioritize staff use but can be available to the public when not in use by employees.
Members reviewed rough annual service fee estimates (about $500 per port) and discussed payment and programming options (time-limited availability, pay-to-charge models). Staff will gather the grant manager’s final requirements and finalize plans if the grant is awarded.
