EV Parking and Chargers 

Parking

Electric Vehicle Parking and Chargers:

Certain lots (including the two parking garages) have parking stalls that are designated for Electric Vehicle (EV) use only.  These stalls are equipped with Electric Vehicle (EV) chargers. EV parking stalls are available on a first come, first serve basis for all faculty, staff, students and visitors with plug-in electric vehicles in accordance with the following Use Guidelines. There is no fee for the vehicle charge.

Use:

Vehicles using these EV stalls and chargers must:

  • have a valid parking permit and/or daily parking status.
  • be actively charging when parked in the EV stalls.
  • limit use to four hours of parking in these stalls.
  • neatly replace the charging cords when finished as cords left on the ground are safety hazards.

Restrictions:

  • EV charging station stalls may be closed for special event parking, maintenance and construction.
  • Parking in EV stalls is restricted to vehicles plugged in for charging.
  • The maximum time limit for parking in an EV stall is four hours.
  • The University assumes no responsibility or liability for damage to vehicles using the EV charging stations.
  • Customers may not use electrical outlets in parking facilities for vehicle charging except those designated for use by electric vehicles.

Consent:

By using the EV chargers, the EV owner consents for their vehicle to be unplugged when the charger indicates their vehicle is fully charged. This will better enable vehicles parked adjacent to existing EV chargers the opportunity to charge.  Authorized personnel may disconnect your vehicle at any time.

Guidelines:

Do not count on the availability of NJIT EV chargers as a primary justification in your decision to purchase plug-in electric vehicles. Your purchase decision should be based on your ability to charge at home and at publicly available EV chargers. Do not use NJIT EV chargers if your commute can be accomplished by charging at home. NJIT encourages EV owners who park in spaces adjacent to EV chargers to open charge-port covers as a means to let other EV owners know it is ok to plug in your vehicle when they are done. When your charge is complete, move your vehicle so other employees can use the charger and stall.
