Plug-In/Electric Vehicles are both environmentally friendly and cost-effective. Electric Vehicles (EVs) do not produce tailpipe pollutants and run more quietly than other cars. Additionally, Electric charging stations have the potential to use energy from renewable energy resources instead of fossil fuels, which decreases carbon emisions. EVs are cheaper to run than gas-powered vehicles and tend to require less maintenance, making this a cost-effective alternative. Additionally, you might be able to receive federal rebates for purchasing an EV.
NKU offers eleven EV charging stations on campus. Two electric charging stations are located in Lot F, one station is in Lot C, and four stations will soon be in Lot K: these are for use by any faculty, staff and student with a valid NKU parking permit. You may park at any of these stations and charge your car regardless of what type of parking pass you have, as long as it is valid for the current year. There are also four additional stations on the lower level of Kenton Garage that are open for anyone to use, including the general public (no parking pass required).
