The University of New Mexico has installed two charging stations on its main campus so student commuters can charge electric vehicles. The school announced last week a charging station was installed at the Cornell Parking Structure and another one of the Yale Parking Structure. Each charging station can connect to two vehicles at a time. Officials say charging stations software will track usage, the number of charges, and the amount of energy used per charge.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — The University of New Mexico has installed two charging stations on its main campus so student commuters can charge electric vehicles.

The school announced last week a charging station was installed at the Cornell Parking Structure and another one of the Yale Parking Structure.

Each charging station can connect to two vehicles at a time.

Officials say charging stations software will track usage, the number of charges, and the amount of energy used per charge.

The UNM charging station locations already appear on various EV websites such as ChargePoint and Plugshare.

Mary Clark, manager of the Office of Sustainability, says the school will likely install more charging stations in the future.
