EV Charging in Salt Lake City
Salt Lake City, UT has 208 public EV charging stations, including 16 DC fast chargers and 188 Level 2 stations. Major networks include ChargePoint Network, Non-Networked, Blink Network.
Salt Lake City has embraced EVs partly as an air-quality solution — the valley's winter inversions make tailpipe-free driving especially appealing — and Rocky Mountain Power has expanded charging across the Wasatch Front. The city is also a gateway to world-class skiing, so fast charging matters for canyon trips as much as daily errands.
Charge before heading up the canyons to the resorts — cold and altitude cut range, and weekend demand at trailhead and resort chargers can be heavy.
