Tulsa International Airport Installs PowerPost EVSE

 

April 21, 2017 – Tulsa, Oklahoma - Tulsa International Airport has installed two Level 2 PowerPost™ EVSEs in its newly-renovated parking garage, making it the first airport in Oklahoma to offer electric vehicle charging. Low-current Level 2 charging is well suited for long-dwell parking that is typical at airports and workplaces. The PowerPost product line offers simple, low-current solutions to facilities that want to provide customers and employees alike a way to support a green lifestyle.

"We are excited to offer this amenity to our parking customers. These additions show our ongoing commitment to be sustainable in the way we serve our community and provide assurance to our customers that their vehicle will be ready to go when they return home."

 

Mark VanLoh, CEO of Tulsa International Airport

“We are excited to offer this amenity to our parking customers,” said Mark VanLoh, CEO of Tulsa International Airport. “These additions show our ongoing commitment to be sustainable in the way we serve our community and provide assurance to our customers that their vehicle will be ready to go when they return home.”

 

The two electric vehicle charging stations are each capable of charging one EV, but are installed between spaces so they can reach four parking spots. This enables the airport to reserve more spaces for electric vehicles.

 

“Tulsa International Airport is an example for other long-dwell parking facilities in the region, such as schools, health care facilities and entertainment centers,” said John Hipchen, Manager of Sustainable Technology at Telefonix Inc.  “We are excited about the growth of EV infrastructure in Oklahoma.”

 

The installation of electric vehicle charging stations is the latest of Tulsa International Airport’s green initiatives, which aim to improve the environmental friendliness of the facility. Passengers with electric vehicles can find the new charging stations in Row J on Level 1 of the airport parking garage.

For more information on the EV charging plan for the Tulsa Region, the Tulsa EV Coalition will hold a meeting at Tulsa International Airport on May 23, 2017.
