Currently, less than 1 percent of vehicles on America’s roadways are fully electric. However, according to the New York Times, with a growing worldwide focus on reducing greenhouse gas emissions, it is projected that by 2035, 25 percent of all new car sales will be electric. In response to these trends, UNM’s Facilities Management Department (FM) and Parking & Transportation Services (PATS) are tripling the available electric vehicle parking spaces on campus.
“At PATS, we strive to be proactive in meeting the changing needs of the campus and our customers,” said Barbara Morck, PATS director. “The installation of new charging stations puts us ahead of the demand and positions us for the inevitable growth of electric vehicles.”
