Where Can I Charge My Electric Car?

Electric Charging Station in Parking Garage

So you just bought a new electric Chevy Bolt or a Silverado EV in Chittenango—where can you find electric car charging stations in the Oneida area? While our service team recommends installing a home electric car charger, and using public electric car chargers as needed, there are times when you’ll need to top up when you’re out and about in Canastota. Read below to answer the question of where you can charge your electric car.

Electric Car Charger Types

While you might be looking for things to do in the Manlius area, you might need to scope out the different electric car charger types available in the area. There are several electric car charging stations near Utica, but a home electric charger will be the most convenient for overnight charging. Here are the three different types of electric car chargers: 

  1. Domestic Outlet Home Charging (Regular Outlet) (Level 1 Charging): This electric car charger will charge your Chevrolet in 24 hours using a standard three-prong outlet. It’s the perfect charger for overnight charging. Still asking, “Where can I charge my electric car close by?” Start at home! 
  2. Installed Brand-Approved Domestic Charging (Level 2 Charging): This electric car charger should be installed by a East Syracuse-area electrician. It can charge your battery in a few hours or, depending on the type of Level 2 charger, it can get your vehicle battery to 80% in 30 to 40 minutes. 
  3. Public Charging/DC Fast Charging (Level 2 Charging): Public electric car charging stations are typically found in malls, hotels, parking garages, and gas stations. They are the fastest option, delivering an 80 percent charge in as few as 30 minutes.

Are Electric Car Charging Stations Free? 

Now that you know the answer to, “Where can I charge my electric car around Chittenango?”, it’s important to know the costs of public electric car charging stations. Some of them might be free while others can cost between $7 to $15 to charge your vehicle fully. Most charge by the kilowatt-hour. 

The overall savings cost with electric vehicles is huge when compared to regular gas-powered vehicles. To learn more about additional electric car perks, check out our guide to the benefits of electric cars!
