Electric Vehicle (EV) owners can now use two new Level 3 fast charging stations recently installed at the Wellesley Municipal Light Plant (WMLP).
The charging stations are located at 4 Municipal Way. Each station has two different charging cords and is designed to charge at 100 Kilowatts (KW).
Payments must be made using the FLO EV Charging app which can be downloaded from either the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store.
As approved by the WMLP Board, the charging per kilowatt hour fees are based on the time of day:
| Time | Days | Hours | $/kWh |
|---|
| Off Peak | Saturday - Sunday | All Day | $0.25 |
| Off Peak | Monday - Friday | 9 PM - 6 AM | $0.25 |
| Mid Peak | Monday - Friday | 6 AM - 4 PM | $0.50 |
| Peak | Monday - Friday | 4 PM - 9 PM | $0.75 |
Each station has a maximum charging rate of 100 kW. There is an idle fee of $1.00 per minute after a 10-minute grace period for a vehicle that has been parked at a station for more than 2 hours.
These stations can be used by anyone with the FLO app and will show up on public charging station maps like Plug Share.
