Maui Kapalua Airport commissions a new NEVI DC fast charging site

Remember the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure program? It’s alive and well, funding public EV charging sites around the country.

Sustainability Partners, a provider of Electric Vehicles as a Service, supported the Hawaiʻi Department of Transportation in the development of a new DC fast charging site at Maui Kapalua Airport. This is the third NEVI-funded location commissioned by HDOT.

Community leaders recently participated in a commissioning and blessing ceremony celebrating the opening of the new charging facility.

The new site includes four 150 kW DC fast chargers with both NACS and CCS connectors. It’s open 24 hours a day, and features canopy lighting and security cameras.

“Expanding Hawaiʻi’s EV charging infrastructure is an important step toward supporting cleaner transportation and improving connectivity across the islands,” said Ed Sniffen, Director of the Hawaiʻi Department of Transportation. “This new NEVI-funded fast-charging site at Kapalua Airport helps provide residents and visitors with more reliable access to public charging infrastructure while supporting the state’s broader transportation electrification and sustainability goals.”
