Brock University offers EV charging options through ChargePoint.
There are 22 ports across 13 stations on campus for Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEVs) and Electric Vehicles (EVs). Charging is available while parked and billed through the ChargePoint app, using electricity from nearby campus buildings.
Important:
- Parking in an EV charging space without an EV, or parking an EV without plugging in, will result in ticketing in accordance with the Highway Traffic Act.
- All vehicles charging must follow Brock University Parking Rules and Regulations.
- Before charging, vehicles must pay for parking via the HONK Mobile app or hold a valid Brock parking permit (except Lot 2 permits).
| Level | Charging Locations | Parking Validated By |
| Level 2 | Flora Egerter Way, University Road East, Lot C, and Lot P | Permit (except Lot 2) or HONK Hourly (Zone ID: 2453) |
| Level 3 | Lot Glenridge & Lot 3 | Permit (except Lot 2) or HONK Hourly (Zone ID: 2453) |

Once you park at the station, open the ChargePoint app on your smart device and ‘tap’ the device to the ChargePoint station screen. This will unlock the cable from the station for you to plug in your vehicle.

- Failure to validate parking: Any vehicle charging without a HONK receipt or a valid Brock University parking permit will be ticketed. (Note: Lot 2 permits are not valid for EV charging.)
