Electric Car Charging

Public Level 2 Charging Stations

We currently have two electric vehicle charging stations (which have two plugs each) at Champlain College. They are located at:

  • The Miller Center parking lot at 175 Lakeside Avenue
  • Miller Information Commons (the library) at 95 Summit Street (also called Cedar Lane), in the parking lot beside Foster Hall

Both stations were installed in partnership with the Burlington Electric Department and are open to the public 24/7. They are operated by Chargepoint and users must have a Chargepoint account to use them. Users pay a per-kilowatt-hour rate. After 4 hours there is an additional $1 per hour rate. Payment for the space is not required.
