Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging
Since 2018, the City of Long Beach has continued to expand its public EV charging infrastructure. Installation of EV charging stations in public facilities advances the City’s goals of reducing greenhouse emissions by facilitating the use of alternative fuel vehicles, with the long-term goal of carbon neutrality by 2045.How to Pay
To pay for charging at our stations, a ChargePoint account is required. To set up an account and download the mobile app, visit chargepoint.com/drivers/.
