Plugged in and Powered Up: FM Launches Fleet Electrification Pilot
A quiet transformation has begun on the College Park campus as 51 distinctive vehicles - 25 vans, 23 pickups, and three SUVs - begin circulating the campus grounds. They are the first fully electric vehicles (EVs) in the Facilities Management (FM) fleet, part of a one-year pilot project, and an important step toward President Pines’ goal of a fully electric fleet by 2035.
How Can We Help You?
"I want to express my gratitude for the efforts you put in for the unveiling of both Field Hockey and Women's Lacrosse. The student-athletes and staff were beyond excited when they toured the facility. Thank you!"
