Electric vehicle charging station at the ACC Highland Business Center

Electric Vehicles

Charging Stations for plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) are available at all ACC campuses.

Attention ACC EV Charging Station Users:

ACC is currently in the process of switching from utilizing Austin Energy’s PIE program at select Austin-area campuses, to exclusively offering the “ACC EV Charge Subscription” that can be used to charge at every EV Charging Station in the district.

To sign-up for the ACC EV Charge Subscription, please visit the ACC Sustainability Marketplace. The subscription is $25 for 6-month unlimited charging.

The EV Charging Stations on ACC campuses that currently operate on the Austin Energy payment system will be transitioned to the new ACC system during the winter intersession. Starting January 1st, the EV Charging Stations at ACC will no longer work with the AE PIE card. Users at Cypress Creek, Elgin, Hays, Round Rock, and San Gabriel are already a part of the ACC subscription and will be unaffected by the subscription changes. If you have any questions, please email green@austincc.edu.
