The Alternative Transportation Program includes on-site Electric Vehicle Charging Stations
Jefferson Lab encourages employees, users, and visitors to use sustainable forms of transportation to reduce Scope 3 GHG emissions related to commuting. In FY 2022, Jefferson Lab performed its first-ever commuter survey to better understand the transportation behaviors and needs of its employees and users. As a direct response to the survey, Jefferson Lab is launching the Alternative Transportation Program. The Alternative Transportation Program provides preferred parking for Low Emission Vehicles and Carpooling, includes on-site charging stations for Electric Vehicles (EV) and Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV), and creates a forum for the lab community to communicate about sustainable commuting strategies. To learn more about the program benefits and register as a Alternative Transportation Program participant, see the topic areas below!
Throughout the campus, Jefferson Lab offers highly-desirable parking spaces dedicated to Low Emission Vehicle (LEV) drivers. Using the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy's (ACEEE) GreenerCars database, Jefferson Lab provides LEV parking permits for light-, medium-, and heavy-duty vehicles with a ranking of Above Average or higher. To register your LEV vehicle, complete this form. To learn more about ACEEE's GreenerCars database or check your vehicle's ranking, click here!
Jefferson Lab recognizes that carpooling directly reduces Scope 3 GHG emissions related to commuting. To promote carpooling, Jefferson Lab offers highly-desirable parking spaces dedicated to vehicles transporting two or more staff and/or users to and from the lab. To register as a carpool participant and benefit from premier parking, complete this form.
**New in FY 2023** In direct support of reducing transportation emissions, Jefferson Lab is pleased to announce the launch of on-site charging stations for EVs and PHEVs. The charging stations are available to employees, users, and visitors. Visit Jefferson Lab's Electric Vehicle Charging Stations page to learn more about the program and how to register.
