MGE's public charging network, powered by renewable energy, continues to grow with the addition of four new pole-mounted electric vehicle (EV) charging stations. The chargers, which attach to existing MGE utility poles, offer residents easy curbside charging. The new EV pole-mounted chargers are located near: 

  • Commercial Avenue and North Street in east-central Madison 
  • Lakeside St. Coffee House in south-central Madison  
  • Quann Park on Madison's South side 
  • Troy Gardens on Madison's North side 

Studies show that about 80% of EV charging happens at home. This can be challenging for drivers who don't have a garage or dedicated parking. That's why MGE and the City of Madison partnered to find locations that could benefit from easy access to curbside charging.   

MGE's first pole-mounted charging station was installed in the fall of 2023 on Madison's East side near Worthington Park.
