EV Charging Stations

EV (Electric Vehicle) Charging Stations

UTSW is expanding EV charging options across campus to support our commitment to sustainability. New charging stations are now available at Lot 17 on North Campus and Lot E on West Campus, in addition to the existing stations in North Campus Garage 1.

Charging Locations

  • Lot 17: North Campus
  • Lot E: West Campus
  • North Campus Garage 1: Underneath buildings NA–NH

Permit Requirements

An active parking permit and a valid EV permit are required to access campus EV charging stations. Your EV permit provides access to charging locations in campus lots and garages. Without a valid EV permit, access to these locations may be limited.

Parking Rules

Charging spaces are reserved for electric vehicles that are actively charging. If all charging spaces are occupied, drivers must park in the lot or garage designated by their parking permit.

Charging Rates

  • First 4 hours: $1 per hour
  • After 4 hours: $5 per hour

How to Charge Your EV

After plugging in your vehicle, start a charging session by using the ChargePoint smartphone app. Make sure you are signed in to your account in the app. (Tesla drivers will need the Tesla charging adapter.)

Option 1: From the ChargePoint app, choose the station and click "Start Charge."

Option 2: Use "Tap to Charge" to wave your smartphone near the charger.

  • iPhone setup: In the ChargePoint app go to "Menu," select "Account," and then tap "Manage Cards." Pick "Set It Up” to add your ChargePoint pass to Apple Wallet.
  • Android setup: Go to the smartphone's settings menu and enable NFC.
