HONOLULU (KHON2) — Daniel K. Inouye International Airport is seeing some electric new additions to one of their parking structures.
HDOT unveiled 20 new electric vehicle charging stations located on the ground floor of the International Parking Structure.
To plug in and charge up, it will cost 44 cents per kWh from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and 57 cents per kWh from 5 p.m. to 9 a.m.
For payment, you can download the OpConnect mobile app or scan a QR displayed at the stations. Standard airport parking rates apply.
The OpConnect Level 2 chargers are available on a first-come, first-served basis, 24 hours a day.
“Hawai‘i consistently ranks among the top states for electric vehicle adoption, so it’s important that we continue to invest in charging infrastructure that supports the electrification of our transportation system,” said Hawai‘i Department of Transportation Director Ed Sniffen.
HDOT wants to continue to invest in projects that spark sustainability in Hawaiʻi. The project total, including the cost of the chargers and installation, was $539,000.
