Element Lexington First Hotel in World to Install Electric Car Charging Station
When you pull up to your hotel in your electric vehicle after a long day on the road, you will no longer need to worry about charging your battery. Today, Carbon Day Automotive announced a partnership with Element Hotels to install a ChargePoint Charging Station at the Element Lexington. The “Element” brand is Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide’s new eco-chic branded hotel chain. The Element Lexington is located in a suburb of Boston and opened in July 2008 and the charging station will be “unveiled” tomorrow.
The Element hotels are the testing ground for green design, practices and operations, and all hotels are LEED certified (the Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design is a certification offered by the U.S. Green Building Council). In addition, the Element Lexington has preferred parking for those driving hybrids or all electric vehicles and also offers guests the ability to use bikes to get around town.
