Naval Facilities Engineering Command - Naval Station Great Lakes - Building 1H

The Naval Facilities Engineering Command operates this independent EV charging station at Building 1H on Naval Station Great Lakes. It offers charging with Type 1 (J1772) connectors. The number of charging points is not specified. This station provides 4 kW peak AC charging. This level of power is suitable for topping up a battery while parked locally. For context, 4 kW will add about 12-16 miles of range per hour of charging, depending on the vehicle. This is slower than DC fast charging but adequate for overnight or workday charging. EV charging in Great Lakes can often be found at sites like this, intended for local use rather than rapid long-distance travel. Expect this to be a slower charge compared to the 50 kW or higher speeds found at public DC fast chargers.
