New Rochelle supports EV charging through public stations at municipal lots and the train-station garage, and follows NYS Stretch Energy Code requirements that new multifamily and commercial parking include EV-ready infrastructure.
The city has installed Level 2 EV chargers at select municipal garages and supports private residential charger installation subject to a standard electrical permit from the Bureau of Buildings. New York's Stretch Energy Code and NYSERDA programs require newer large parking facilities to include conduit and capacity for EV charging. Home Level 2 chargers on a dedicated 240V circuit need an electrical permit and licensed electrician.
