4 electric vehicle charging stations at Northstar

Two Tesla charging stations and two Clipper Creek stations that can charge any type of zero-emission electric vehicle are now available for Northstar residents and guests for free.

In partnership with the Northstar Community Service District, Tahoe Mountain Resorts Foundation for two years will pay for the electricity required to power these four electric vehicle charging stations located at the Northstar Community Service District office in Truckee.

According to the U.S. Department of Energy, depending on how they’re driven, today’s light-duty electric vehicles can exceed 100 mpge and can drive 100 miles consuming only 25-40 kWh. Use of these vehicles also has environmental benefits, including the reduction of tailpipe emissions that are associated with greenhouse gases.
