CQ Hotels in Wellington is paving the way in the hospitality industry by becoming the first hotel in the country to install TESLA charging stations this week. The two Tesla charging stations will be an addition to the eight electric car charging stations already installed in the hotel. General manager Olivier Lacoua said with the recent arrival of Tesla electric vehicles in New Zealand it’s a no brainer to act now and get on the bandwagon. “We are already seeing a surge in electric cars on the roads so it’s important we offer this incentive to guests but also follow our moral code and do good by the planet,” said Lacoua. CQ Hotels Wellington has strong sustainability focus, in 2015 it led the way, offering guests electric bikes for hire and works in conjunction with Wellington based cycle hire start-up Switched on Bikes who run eBike guided tours of Wellington.
