Georgia Street adds EV charging station

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) - Indianapolis’ Georgia Street, of recent Super Bowl Village fame, is now home to two Electric Vehicle charging stations.

Indianapolis Power & Light announced the installation of the universal charging equipment Tuesday saying the plugs will cost EV drivers $2.50 per charging session.

The plugs, located on Georgia Street between Meridian and Illinois streets, will fit most electric vehicles.

"Indianapolis Power & Light Company continues to support our customers who drive environmentally-friendly electric vehicles by offering this evolving technology in a conveniently accessible location in the heart of our city," said Ken Zagzebski, IPL President and Chief Executive Officer. "As electric cars continue to grow in popularity in Indianapolis, we are proud to be leading the way in championing their use."

The two new charging stations join stations already in place at Denison Merchant's Garage, the Arthur M. Glick Jewish Community Center, Garfield Park Library and the Indiana State Garage at 401 W. Washington Street.

Additional units will be available on the 2nd floor of the Denison Plaza garage on Capitol Avenue between the convention center and PNC Center in the coming weeks.
