FOSTORIA, Ohio It may be a community with very few electric vehicles, but the city of Fostoria is ready to install its first public electric vehicle charging station.
Seneca County applied for a grant through power company AEP Ohio.
After a two-year wait, the city of Fostoria was awarded a $100,000 grant to offset the cost of installing an electric vehicle charging station in its downtown.
But, why Fostoria?
According to Charlene Watkins with Seneca Regional Planning, it s because Fostoria sits at the confluence of multiple state highways.
