The May 3 edition of the New Haven Register reports that four municipalities and a Fairfield County financial services firm will be installing electric vehicle charging stations provided by Connecticut Light & Power (CL&P) as part of a research project being conducted by the utility and its corporate parent, Northeast Utilities (NU).
Mansfield, Torrington, and Westport signed on to participate in the study on May 3 CL&P officials said, and West Hartford is expected to soon confirm its involvement as well. Those towns will be joined by the Stamford office of financial services firm UBS.
NU already has charging stations at company offices in Berlin and Hartford, Connecticut as well as in Springfield, Massachusetts and Manchester, New Hampshire. The utility is looking to add another 15 businesses and communities to join the study, according to Jeff Butler, CL&P’s president and chief operating officer.
