Sustainability Partners Expands EV Charging at Airport Facilities
Sustainability Partners Enhances Electric Vehicle Charging Stations
Sustainability Partners, renowned for its expertise in sustainable infrastructure, has seen a significant milestone with the recent installation of 20 new electric vehicle (EV) chargers at Daniel K. Inouye International Airport. This initiative marks their ongoing partnership with the Hawai'i Department of Transportation (HDOT) and underscores their commitment to promoting clean energy and convenient transportation solutions.
This latest project reflects the growing trend of utilizing Infrastructure as a Service, which seeks to improve accessibility to EV infrastructure for travelers. Arnold Albiar, managing partner at Sustainability Partners in Hawai'i, emphasized the importance of this effort by stating, "This project showcases the powerful impact of Infrastructure as a Service on advancing needed EV infrastructure." He expressed pride in supporting HDOT's mission to facilitate the development of a sustainable transportation network in the state.
Boosting Statewide EV Infrastructure
In addition to the 20 new chargers at the airport, Sustainability Partners is actively collaborating with HDOT to roll out over 35 more public-facing EV chargers throughout Hawai'i. This extensive effort showcases the commitment to not only increase the number of charging stations but also promote the state's goal of achieving a carbon-neutral economy by 2045.
Oahu Airport Director Malcom Smith remarked, "Adding 20 new EV charging stations at Daniel K. Inouye International Airport demonstrates our commitment to build a sustainable transportation network and expand the EV infrastructure." The initiative aims to make clean mobility accessible at this crucial transport hub.
Details of the New Charging Stations
The newly installed EV chargers are located in the airport's international parking structure, making them convenient for travelers. These chargers are available 24/7 on a first-come, first-served basis, operating on a pay-per-use model. The chargers come equipped with OpConnect Level 2 chargers that accept standard J1772 connectors, also referred to as J plugs or Type 1 connectors.
Charging rates at Daniel K. Inouye International Airport vary, costing $0.44 per kWh during daytime hours from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and slightly higher at $0.57 per kWh during the evening from 5 p.m. to 9 a.m. Payments can be easily processed via the OpConnect mobile app by scanning a QR code found at the charging stations. It's important for drivers to remain plugged in while parked in designated EV stalls, where standard airport parking rates will apply.
