Steamboat Lake State Park completes installation of EV charging stations

 

STEAMBOAT SPRINGS, Colo. – Colorado Parks and Wildlife announces it has added two more Rivian Waypoints Level 2 electric vehicle (EV) charging stations at Steamboat Lake State Park. The two new stations are located at the Steamboat Lake State Park Visitor Center and are open to any make or model of electric vehicle.

“We are very excited to announce the completion of this project,” said Julie Arington, Steamboat Lake State Park Manager. “This new amenity will allow those with electric vehicles to experience the beauty of our park even though it is in a remote location.”

The charging stations are part of CPW’s partnership with Rivian to install charging stations at state parks across Colorado. Making them more accessible to those who drive electric vehicles but wish to visit State Parks in more remote locations.

The Level 2 chargers provide up to 11.5 kW – enough to add up to 25 miles of charge per hour to a Rivian R1T or R1S. All Rivian Waypoints are powered by 100 percent renewable energy. The use of the CPW chargers is free of charge to the public for a limited time.
