At Central New Mexico Community College (CNM), we are committed to reducing waste, water use, energy use, and our overall carbon footprint.

To support our sustainability efforts, CNM is adding Electric Vehicles (EV) to our fleet and EV charging stations for students, staff, and visitors to use when they park at our campuses. 

The vision of the Parking and Fleet Services Department is to add EV charging stations at all CNM campus locations, as we recognize the growing demand for EV charging stations across the city. CNM strives to be a leader in the community by providing the necessary resources for students, staff, and visitors to be successful at CNM. 

We look forward to the positive impacts that these EV efforts will have on campus and for our community as we all strive for a sustainable future.
