The EV ARC units include emergency power panels that can be used by first responders. The public amenity was funded with a Clean Fuel Advanced Technology grant through The North Carolina Clean Technology Center.

“The Greensboro Department of Transportation is excited to add these EV ARC solar powered charging stations as an integral part of the EV charging and disaster preparedness infrastructure in our center-city,” said Greensboro Department of Transportation Business and Parking manager, Stephen Carter.

“These charging stations are another indicator of the City’s commitment to green energy and sustainability. We are thankful for the opportunity to partner with NC State University’s NC Clean Energy Technology Centre to expand amenities available to visitors of downtown Greensboro.”

The purchase of 100% renewably powered EV ARC chargers supports the North Carolina ZEV (Zero Emission Vehicle) Plan to accelerate EV adoption in the state and is part of the State’s vision to reduce fossil fuel emissions by 40% below 2005 levels by 2025. The plan also includes objectives for resiliency planning, which is addressed by the inherent off-grid energy production and delivery of the EV ARC.
