BOULDER, Colo. (AP) — Boulder County is requiring new single-family detached homes to be set up so owners can charge an electric car there — or at least be able to accommodate installation of an outlet to charge a 240-volt vehicle later.
The county’s new building code also requires new single-family detached homes to have solar panels or solar thermal systems — or at least a conduit so the necessary wiring and plumbing can be easily installed later.
