The City of Fort Pierce, in partnership with FPUA recently installed 4 new charging stations in the City Hall Parking Garage to meet the growing demand for electric cars. 

With the increased use of electric cars, FPUA and the City of Fort Pierce proactively installed 4 new electric car charging stations located on the 3rd floor of the City Hall Parking Garage. Each station has its own designated parking spot with a wall-mounted station built for daily use and easy to use electrical charger. The existing EV charger located on the first floor of the parking garage will be relocated next week.

In addition, Tesla recently built a new Supercharging station at WaWa in Fort Pierce, located at 5575 Okeechobee Rd.
