Port of Hueneme, California - The Port of Hueneme continues to show its commitment to environmental stewardship by unveiling two new electric vehicle charging stations available to the public. In highlighting the new zero emission infrastructure, Board President Mary Anne Rooney stated, “these new stations are evidence of the Port’s ever-growing efforts to be responsible stewards of the environment and good neighbors. We hope that not only Port customers and employees will utilize them, but that residents of the surrounding community will take advantage of these state-of-the-art charging stations as well.”
This ready to use infrastructure is in fulfillment of the Ventura County Air Pollution Control District’s (VCAPCD) Air Quality Management Plan and the Port’s Environmental Framework. These new stations were funded in part through a VCAPCD Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Program grant. “We are grateful to the VCAPCD team who awarded the grant to fund this project and look forward to continuing to make meaningful improvements that build upon existing projects like shoreside power, battery power storage, and zero/near zero emission vehicles on port,” said Kristin Decas, CEO & Port Director of the Port of Hueneme.
