Adams County has now added a charge for drivers at public electric vehicle stations to charge their cars.
Since 2014, the county has allowed free electric vehicle charging at seven locations to encourage drivers to switch from gas-powered vehicles. A spokesperson for the county said the fee was added Aug. 3 after seeing the cars surge in popularity.
Those charging up at county stations are looking at $0.15 kWh fee plus an additional $0.25 per minute charge for cars who stay at the station for over an hour after powering up.
Many popular 2026 electric cars take 50-110 kWh to fill their batteries. That means a $7.50 to $17.50 charge not including added fees, including a charge just for plugging in and a $0.25 per minute idle fee for drivers that stay at the station for over an hour after powering up.
