LAX speeds up electric ambitions with 1,300 new EV chargers

The EV charger addition is part of LAX’s $5.5 billion Landslide Access Modernization Program (LAMP), set on providing a first-class experience for visitors.

The LAMP program is a part of Los Angeles World Airports’ $14 billion modernization project set to last through 2023. Meanwhile, the 1,300-EV-charger installation is almost complete. Here are a few details to know about the chargers:
  • There are already 832 EV chargers installed and ready to go.
  • Some (LAX does not specify how many) have level 2 capabilities, which can take about eight hours to charge on average.
  • The others are speedy DC fast chargers, which can charge an EV’s battery to 80% in around 20 minutes.
  • 600 chargers are in the central parking structures (located in the middle of terminals).
  • You can find the rest of the chargers in the economy parking lot.
