Grants available for charging stations

Massachusett’s State officials announced yesterday that they are taking applications over the next 60 days from cities and towns interested in installing electric vehicle charging stations. State officials said $200,000 is available, and they estimate the funds will pay for installation of 80 to 100 stations or more, if partners such as malls, garages, or hotel owners offer matching funds. While all 351 cities and towns are eligible to apply, the Department of Energy Resources will give preference in awarding the funds to cities and towns that have been designated as “green communities.’’
