Transportation

Are you the owner of an electric vehicle?  The University of Connecticut recognizes the importance and efficiency of both hybrid and fully electric alternative fuel vehicles.  Grants have been acquired to allow UConn to install Electric Vehicle (EV) charging stations around the Storrs Campus including one in the Motor Pool parking lot, two in North Garage, and two in South Garage.  All stations located on campus are free of charge for public use for the first 5 years of operation.

Purchasing Guidelines

UConn is currently working to increase the number of hybrid and electric vehicles in our fleet through updating our purchasing guidelines to reflect recent advances in automobile technology.
