The City of Orlando and OUC unveil 100-station Orlando Public EV Charging Network

In total through the project, a partnership with OUC and the American Cities Climate Challenge, the City of Orlando has installed 100 new EV charging stations spanning across 33 locations throughout the City, including at parks, neighborhood and senior centers, parking garages, and public venues. Each location will also have at least one ADA accessible EV charging station to ensure the services are accessible to all drivers. For a full map of all 100 locations, click here.

EVs are critical to achieving OUC’s goal of net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, with interim goals of reducing carbon emissions by 50% by 2030 and 75% by 2040. As part of OUC’s goal to ensure EV charging stations are equitably and conveniently installed throughout the city, the utility recently announced another partnership with the City and Orange County to build an EV charging hub on Robinson Street near I-4 on the OUC-owned land next to Ace Café. This project is the largest of its kind in Florida with 22 fast charging stations – including 16 superchargers for Teslas. The site will be complete later this year.

Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer, Orlando City Commissioners and OUC—The Reliable One unveiled the new 100-station Orlando Public EV Charging Network, and “plugged in” at one of the new electric vehicle (EV) charging stations at the John H. Jackson Neighborhood Center.
