FACILITIES AND OPERATIONS
ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING STATIONS
Hofstra University is committed to sustainability and innovation.
As part of our ongoing efforts to support a cleaner, greener campus, we offer 60 free electric vehicle (EV) charging station parking spaces for faculty, staff, and students.
These commercial Level 2 charging stations, powered by ChargePoint software, make it easy for members of the Hofstra community to charge their vehicles while on campus.
How to Access Hofstra’s EV Charging Stations
- Register your vehicle with the Department of Public Safety through the Hofstra Portal.
- Create a ChargePoint account at www.chargepoint.com or by downloading the ChargePoint app.
- Once your ChargePoint account is active, request to join “Hofstra University” under Connections in your driver profile.
- The Department of Public Safety will verify your Hofstra vehicle registration and approve your access to the campus charging stations.
Charging Station Guidelines
- Please remember that charging stations are for active charging only.
- Once your vehicle has finished charging, you must move it to a regular parking space so others can use the station.
- Vehicles left in a charging spot for more than four hours may be subject to parking violations, booting, or towing.
- By following these guidelines, you help maintain an equitable and sustainable environment for the entire Hofstra community.
