NREL orders EV ARC for fleet operations and employees

EV ARC units are currently in use in four DOE National Laboratories including Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, Sandia National Laboratories in Livermore and Idaho National Laboratory.

The US Federal Government is the largest consumer of gasoline in the world today. Electrifying the Federal fleets will require significant amounts of EV charging infrastructure. Envision has already sold to multiple Federal agencies and is in the process of qualifying for the GSA schedule so that Federal departments can purchase Envision products without going through lengthy and resource consuming contracting processes. Envision currently has similar contracts in place with the State of California, New York City, State of Massachusetts, Exelon Power and The City of Pittsburgh.

“We are delighted to fulfill more orders for Federally Funded institutions particularly as we move towards qualification for GSA which we anticipate in October” said Envision Solar CEO, Desmond Wheatley. “We believe that inclusion on the Government Services Administration contract should increase opportunities to sell our products to Federal Government entities. This is particularly important to us at a time when we anticipate stimulus infrastructure spending.”
