City-Owned EV Chargers Available Overnight Without Overstay Fees In City Of Palo Alto
The current $0.23 per kWh charge will remain in effect, but after your car is fully charged, there will no longer be an overstay fee.
July 20, 2021
Starting August 1, 2021 the City will be removing a $2 per hour overstay fee at our City-owned charging stations to allow for overnight (5pm - 8am) parking. With this change, the City is attempting to make it easier to drive electric by providing more convenient access to charging for residents and members of the public who may not have access to charging at home. The current $0.23 per kWh charge will remain in effect, but after your car is fully charged, there will no longer be an overstay fee.
