Center City garage installs vehicle charging stations
Parametric Associates L.L.C. said it completed installation of eight electric car charging stations in its Convention Center Garage at 11th and Arch Streets in Center City.
The installation is a first for a public garage in Philadelphia, the company said. Each stations can service two cars at a time. The 706-car garage also serves the Hilton Garden Inn Hotel.
Parametric Associates said in a statement that it expects to expand the service for plug-in autos as more consumers acquire electric vehicles. Access to charging stations helps relieve so-called range anxiety of consumers considering electric vehicle purchases.
Mayor Nutter called the installation "an example of how diverse stakeholders can play a role in helping to make Philadelphia a leading green city." - Reid Kanaley
