Kearney, Neb.-Drivers of electric vehicles will soon be able to add Kearney to their list of available charging areas for their cars.

Officials in Kearney will unveil four new electric vehicle charging stations on Friday.

The charging stations are located near the Law Enforcement Center in downtown Kearney (level II charging), near Cunningham's on the Lake (level II charging), and two fast-charging stations on the campus of the Crowne Plaza Hotel.

The project is made possible, in part, by a grant from the Nebraska Environmental Trust which is funded by proceeds from the Nebraska Lottery. The Trust has awarded more than $405 million to conservation projects in Nebraska.
