Part of Maryland Energy Administration PEV@MTA Program

The State of Maryland has flipped the switch on 16 EV charging station ports at 8 commuter rail stations this week. The dual-port Level 2 ChargePoint stations are located at Maryland Transit Administration (MTA) Light Rail and MARC Station parking lots. These plug-in electric vehicle charging sites are part of the PEV@MTA program which is funded by a $1,000,000 grant administered by the Maryland Energy Administration (MEA).
