OCEAN CITY, Md. — Ahead of the busy summer surge, the Town of Ocean City has partnered with Maryland-based ezVOLTz to upgrade and expand its electric vehicle charging infrastructure.

The project delivers a more reliable, higher-capacity network across key municipal locations, helping the town meet rising EV demand.

The deployment includes a mix of DC fast chargers (10% to 80% in 20–45 minutes) and Level 2 stations (10% to 80% in 4 to 8 hours), strategically placed to improve accessibility, reduce wait times, and ensure consistent performance during peak travel periods. This investment reflects Ocean City’s commitment to cleaner transportation and an enhanced visitor experience, particularly as seasonal demand places added strain on traditional fuel infrastructure.

Charger Installations Include:

Roland E. Powell Convention Center South Lot

• 2 DC Fast Chargers

• 6 Level 2 Chargers

Worcester Street Parking Area

• 2 Level 2 Chargers

Ocean City 100th St Library

• 4 Level 2 Chargers

Northside Park

• 2 Level 2 Chargers

Payment can be made through the ezVOLTz EV Station Locator Apps offered in the Apple and Google Play Stores. Or the Level 2 Chargers will have a QR code activated payment method which will appear on the screens of the chargers, while the DC Fast Chargers will have a credit card reader on the front of the units along with the QR code on the screens.

“Partnering with ezVOLTz to expand electric vehicle charging infrastructure is an important step forward for Ocean City,” said Terry McGean, City Manager. “Upgrading our EV charging equipment through this partnership helps us meet the needs of a growing number of electric vehicle drivers while also attracting new visitors and supporting local businesses. These improvements are an investment in the future of Ocean City and the overall visitor experience.”

“As a Maryland-based company, we’re proud to support Ocean City with a reliable and scalable EV charging solution,” said Sean Powell, Chief Operating Officer of ezVOLTz. “This project is built for the long term and is designed to grow with EV adoption while minimizing downtime and delivering a seamless experience for drivers.”

The ezVOLTz platform, ezCONNECT, provides Ocean City with real-time visibility and control over its charging network, helping ensure high uptime, rapid issue response, and a consistent driver experience. By intelligently managing energy behind the meter, the platform also supports long-term efficiency and minimal impact on the grid.
