Town of Chatham Adopts EV Charging

The Town of Chatham in Massachusetts announces the completion of its first fully publicly accessible electric vehicle (EV) combined fast charging plus conventional charging station project.

The town partnered with Rivermoor Energy, a provider of clean energy development solutions for commercial and government customers, and Weston & Sampson, a New England engineering, construction, and professional services firms, along with Eversource for the project.

Located on the historic Eldredge Garage site, the new EV charging station opened on March 25, 2025, delivering significant economic and environmental benefits to Chatham and Cape Cod. The state-of-the-art, public access facility includes eight new EV chargers provided by FLO — four Level 3 DC fast chargers and four Level 2 chargers — for 30-minute to multi-hour charging.

“The activation of EV charging stations at the Eldredge Garage Visitor Center is a significant step forward in our efforts to reduce our carbon footprint,” said Jill Goldsmith, town manager of Chatham, in a statement. “By making it easier for everyone to own and operate EVs, we can help to reduce the number of traditional gasoline-powered vehicles on our roads, which will result in cleaner air and a healthier environment for all of us. I would like to thank all our partners who have helped make this project a reality.”
