Local Gov: EV Chargers within 5 minutes of every household

What is happening? The City of Hoboken, NJ has the goal of placing a EV charger within. 5 minute walk of every household. Like San Antonio, TX, Hoboken is patterning with a private company to make this goal happen. Hoboken’s partner is Volta that uses video advertising to support the EV infrastructure. Volta will handle the installation and operation of the new sites, and it will pay the city to do so.

Why does this matter? In a city where street parking can outnumber residential driveways and the number of EVs is set to triple by 2025, building out an EV charger network is crucial.
