The University offers charging stations for electric vehicle (EV) drivers to plug in and power up. As apart of JEA's (Jacksonville Electric Authority) initiative and our commitment to provide supportive sustainable programs, we're excited to partner with ChargePoint to install our first charging station.

ChargePoint is the world's largest network of independently owned and operated EV charging stations with over 27,000 public charging stations worldwide, providing drivers access to charge on the go.

  • What are the usage fees?
    • $.20 per Kilo Watt Hour (kWh) while the vehicle is charging.
    • A notification will be issued regarding charging completion. 
    • Fully charged vehicles remaining in the EV charging space will incur a parking fee of $2.00 per/hour. ***There will be a thirty-minute grace period before this charge begins. 
  • How to start a charging session anywhere including UNF
    1. Download the mobile app to start charging immediately, or sign up to get a free ChargePoint card. (This is a 7 to 10-day process) If you aren't a member yet, sign up. 
    2. Find the station nearest you. Just use your ChargePoint mobile app when you're on the go or view our online map.
    3. Charging your electric vehicle. Found a charging spot? Great.
