Subject: Public EV Charger Operating Standards
Tarrant County College is pleased to provide a Level 2 Electric Vehicle Charging Station for eligible vehicles, i.e., Battery
Electric Vehicles (BEV) and Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV). According to the US Department of Energy, hybrid
and plug-in electric vehicles can help increase energy security, improve fuel economy, lower fuel costs and reduce
emissions.
To standardize the procedures for public use of EV chargers located at TCCD facilities, we recommend the following
guidelines:
1. Loca�on
The dual-port charging unit is located in the parking lot at the Tarrant County College Opportunity Center
(TCCOC) at 5901 Fitzhugh Ave., Fort Worth, 76119. The two (2) parking spaces are specially marked for EVs only.
There is a sign behind the charging unit, specifying the spaces are available only for ac�vely charging vehicles.
Spots are not to be used for overnight or long-term parking.
2. Use
The two EV charger ports can be u�lized to charge both BEVs and PHEVs. The unit is accessible from 6 a.m. to
10 p.m. daily, 7 days a week.
Charging unit users are responsible for neatly replacing the charging cables on the respec�ve hooks when
finished.
3. Payments
The cost for charging vehicles is $1 per hour (the approximate equivalent of $0.10 per kilowat-hour (kWh)).
If two vehicles are charging at the same �me, the electricity and cost will be split between them.
Customers can pay by credit card at the charger or through the Revitalize Charging Solu�ons (RCS) app.
Disclaimer: The use of the public EV charger is a transac�on between the end user and RCS.
Any issues should be resolved with RCS.

Depending on batery type, charger configura�on and circuit capacity, Level 2 charging adds about 10–20 miles
of range per hour of charging �me.

5. Maintenance
Maintenance and repair of the charging unit will be the responsibility of Revitalize Charging Solu�ons.
Please report to TCCOC Security any visible physical damage to the charger.
6. Rebates
Revitalize Charging Solu�ons will rebate 90% of the user fees to Tarrant County College District. These funds will
be reinvested in the EV program or other sustainability efforts at TCC.
The TCCOC Charger was purchased and par�ally installed through grant funds from the Texas Commission on
Environmental Quality (TCEQ).
