Blink Charging Teams Up with Hertz to Keep EV Rentals Charged and on the Road in Phoenix for the Big Game

Blink to provide reliable charging to Hertz customers at all greater Phoenix area charging stations for both Level 2 and DC Fast Chargers.

 

 

Phoenix, AZ, Feb. 10, 2023  — Blink Charging Co.

The demand for rental cars during large, high-profile events increases significantly, and Hertz has brought in additional EV rentals to meet that need. To help customers charge their EV rentals, Blink is providing free, reliable, fast charging to customers who rent from all Phoenix-area Hertz locations. As drivers pick up their EV from participating Hertz locations, they will receive a Blink activation card that can be used for charging at the many publicly available Blink chargers in the greater Phoenix area for free until 12:00 a.m. MST, Tuesday, February 14.

“Blink applauds Hertz in their effort to grow their EV fleet and providing an opportunity for many to experience driving an electric vehicle for the first time through this promotion,” said Michael D. Farkas, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer at Blink Charging. “As a pioneer in the industry, Blink is excited to have Hertz showcase the incredible benefits and value of electric vehicles and to see how convenient EV charging can be.”

Hertz anticipates approximately 500 EVs to be rented from its Phoenix area locations for those attending the big game over the weekend. Blink and Hertz are encouraging drivers to return their vehicles fully charged to help ensure a smooth handover experience for the next EV rental driver.

“We’re excited to welcome thousands of travelers to Phoenix for the big game and partner with Blink to provide free charging for our EV customers,” says Dave Knudtson, Hertz Division Vice President. “It’s encouraging to see more people renting EVs, especially when traveling to major events like this. Together with Blink, we look forward to providing a great EV rental and charging experience.”

Through large-scale acquisition agreements with Tesla, Polestar and GM, Hertz is assembling a diverse fleet of EVs at a range of price points. Hertz has tens of thousands of EVs available for rent at more than 500 Hertz locations across 38 states. Hertz’s objective is for one-quarter of its fleet to be electric by the end of 2024.

Blink, with its distribution facility located in the Phoenix area, has a large network of Level 2 and DC Fast Chargers in the region that will be able to reliably service Hertz electric vehicles.

National Development Partners with EVPassport to bring EV Charging Vision to Life

 

 

 

Boston, MA – February 8, 2023 — EVPassport, a Los Angeles-based leading provider of EV charging hardware and software platform for forward-thinking companies, today announced an agreement with National Development, one of Greater Boston’s leading multifamily developers and property managers, to install approximately 20 charging stations throughout its apartment community portfolio.

National Development partnered with EVPassport based on the company’s ability to help deliver an innovative and reliable solution for its EV charging station goals and meeting the growing market demand for EV charging with a seamless charging experience and intelligent charging platform.

“Our mission is to deliver the best EV charging experience to our residents. EVPassport’s exceptional ease of use, technology, and reliability delivers just that,” said Jessica Buonopane, Senior VP of Residential Properties at National Development. “It is critical that we update our assets with the technology and amenities of tomorrow in a clean and decarbonized manner. National Development has chosen to partner with EVPassport to strategically and effectively achieve our ESG goals.”

“We are honored to have been chosen by National Development. Having met their standard of excellence is flattering and a terrific endorsement of our tireless commitment to innovation, quality, and customer success,” said Hooman Shahidi, President and Co-CEO of EVPassport, who is also a Boston native. “Beyond their commitment to ESG and the development/management of world-class properties, we are amazed to see how prolific National Development is in their vision.” Shahidi continues.

Why EVPassport is Different Than Other EV Charging Technologies

With numerous EV charging technologies on the market today, National Development did their due diligence to consider all options. There are several key differentiators that lead to their decision to expand with EVPassport, including:

  • ●  EVPassport’s open network and cloud software technology make it the ‘most discoverable’ and the easiest to manage. With open APIs, it’s also integration-ready with existing and future technologies.
  • ●  EVPassport has the best driver experience. The brand’s exclusive “scan and charge” QR code technology is the simplest and fastest way for EV drivers to charge. Unlike other chargers, there are no fobs, apps, or cards required. It’s also compatible with all-electric vehicle makes and models (not just Tesla, for instance).
  • ●  EVPassport’s customer service is unparalleled. One example is EVPassport’s exclusive ‘60 second heartbeat’; the company’s ability to monitor the charger’s operational health remotely every 60 seconds and respond on-demand.

Phoenix Motorcars Delivers ZEV Trucks to City of Salinas

Phoenix Motorcars Delivers ZEV Trucks 
to City of Salinas

 

 

 

Anaheim, California (February 3, 2023) – Phoenix Motorcars is proud to announce their recent deployment of 3, All-Electric, Zero-Emission Z500 trucks to the City of Salinas. The project included 1 x Zero Emission flatbed truck, and 2 x Zero Emission cargo trucks, as well as 3 x Level III charging stations.

 

The three trucks are built on the Ford E-450 chassis powered by Phoenix Motorcars and will serve the City of Salinas in their fleet department. The all-electric zero emission trucks were funded in part by the Monterey Bay Air Resources District (MBARD) Clean Air Management Program and the Hybrid and Zero-Emission Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP) program.

 

According to Richard Stedman, MBARD’s Air Pollution Control Officer, “Over 60% of the total emission of smog forming compounds in our region comes from motor vehicles with the largest portion coming from medium to heavy duty diesel trucks and buses. By partnering with the City of Salinas to purchase three medium duty electric trucks, we’re taking another step toward improving air quality in our community.”

 

The Phoenix Z500 trucks are equipped with a 94-kWh battery pack offering up to 110-mile range and can be fully charged in approximately two to three hours with a 50-kW Level III charger. The Z500 trucks, as compared to its equivalent fossil fueled alternatives, will reduce atmospheric emissions by ~61 tons per vehicle annually, reduce maintenance costs by 75% and fuel costs by 80%.

 

“Agriculture is the foundation of our local economy, so the air quality and climate in our community matter,” said Salinas Mayor Kimbley Craig. “Replacing three large fleet vehicles helps protect our environment and also significantly reduces operational and maintenance costs. Climate resiliency and environmental sustainability are part of the core values of our Council and improve the quality of life for our residents.”

 

Phoenix has been the leader in medium duty electrification for over a decade. With 4 million all-electric miles driven on their zero emission drive systems, Phoenix has unparalleled experience and expertise helping public and private fleets successfully deploy and adopt electric vehicles into their fleets, cleaning the air quality and providing clean, quiet and safe zero emission transportation and mobility for their companies and communities.

 

“Phoenix Motorcars is proud of our commitment to sustainable vehicle technology, and our project to bring the first zero emission trucks to the City of Salinas” says Thomas Allen, Vice President of Sales for Phoenix Motorcars. “We’ve been an avid supporter of both the state HVIP program and MBARD’s efforts to help clean the air quality in Monterey County, and this project is a huge success for both the City of Salinas’ fleet, and their community members who breathe the air of the beautiful central coast. Zero emission transportation and mobility is an integral part of building a sustainable future and it’s great to see the City of Salinas being an early adopter. Operating the Z500 all-electric trucks from Phoenix will provide significant emission savings and cost saving opportunities to Salinas and their community.”

ENDERA SELECTED FOR LARGEST STATE EV BUS CONTRACT IN US HISTORY

The longest range and fastest charging EV shuttle on the market, Endera’s built-in-the-USA buses are now available (as the lowest bid price) to 300+ California transit fleets.

 

LOS ANGELES, CA [February 7th, 2023] Basin Transit Authority (MBTA) has authorized, on behalf of the California Association for Coordinated Transportation (CALACT), Endera for their B-Series all-electric buses in the largest statewide purchasing contract in US history. Endera was awarded the contract for up to 1,000 electric shuttles through its distribution partner, Coachwest Luxury & Performance Motorcars (Coachwest).

 

CALACT association’s membership of transit agencies, as well as city and county governments, can now purchase Endera’s B-Series all-electric shuttles through a streamlined process which complies with federal and state purchasing regulations.

 

CALACT is the largest state transit association in the United States and helps fleet operators avoid lengthy and expensive individual procurement efforts. With over 300 members, CALACT works to promote professional excellence, stimulate ideas for effective community transit, and advocate for improved public transportation in all parts of California.

Endera’s All-Electric B-Series Shuttle

 

An estimated 1,000 electric shuttles are expected to be purchased from the CALACT contract by 2025, with additional electric buses procured over the entire 5-year contract period, making it the most of any state purchasing contracts for electric buses in the United States.

 

As the industry’s only vertically integrated mid-sized EV bus maker in the United States, Endera’s electric powertrains and vehicle bodies are built under one roof at the company’s 250,000 sq ft manufacturing facility in Ottawa, Ohio.

 

Endera’s electric shuttles and associated service partnerships support California’s clean air and climate goals. Endera’s proprietary electric powertrains are developed at the company’s Research and Development (R&D) headquartered in Los Angeles, California. With a focus on quality and service, Endera offers state-wide service capability throughout California with its R&D facility and service partners.

 

“Endera was awarded the CALACT contract as the lowest priced vendor and the only vertically integrated one-stop-shop. We listen to our clients to learn about the problems they face and understand the solutions they need, which is why we have a superior offering in virtually every category,” said John Walsh, Founder & CEO of Endera.

 

“All of our models have a fast-charging option, increasing up-time for operators, while also providing significant range capability. We have developed a fully integrated software ecosystem that makes it easier and less expensive to adopt electric buses, so fleet operators can focus on running their business.” Walsh continued.

 

“Whether a fleet is large or small, finding reliable, affordable electric shuttles can be a tough proposition. Endera is honored to be one of the select few to successfully complete the rigorous CALACT vetting process, allowing us to offer our best-in-class electric buses to transit fleet operators throughout the state,” said Don White, Sales Manager at Endera.

 

Jay Real, Manager, Sales at Coachwest added, “Coachwest is pleased to offer Endera products under the CALACT contract. These cutting-edge vehicles are also eligible for Hybrid and Zero Emission Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP) point-of-sale vouchers.”

 

Endera’s electric buses feature smart technology, including proprietary dispatch software that tracks vehicles and routes, automates records and energy management, and streamlines reporting and vehicle service. The platform also integrates with Endera GO, a consumer app designed to improve riders’ experience.

 

The B-Series offers a 12-passenger + 2 and a 16-passenger + 2 wheelchair seating option, with additional floorplans available to meet each agency’s requirements.

Parqour Announces the Launch of Their All in One Parking Management Solution for a Seamless Experience

Parqour Announces the Launch of Their All in One Parking Management Solution for a Seamless Experience

 

 

 

San Francisco, California–(February 6, 2023) – Parqour has announced the launch of its all in one parking management solution that makes the process of parking contactless and seamless for customers. Parqour leverages license plate recognition technology with 99.6% accuracy to make the parking process smoother for customers. Owners of parking lots and large public facilities like sports venues, restaurants, theaters and residential complexes can use Parqour to optimize their revenue through dynamic pricing, increase security, reduce costs, generate analytics and reports, as well as improve customer service. The company is also offering smart parking as a service by investing into client’s parking infrastructure upgrade, both in software and hardware, to be compensated from the parking’s future revenue.

The average person in the US spends 17 hours a year looking for a parking space and the number of cars looking for parking account for one-third of the traffic in inner cities.

Olzhas Bateyev, Chief Growth Officer at Parqour said, “With license plate recognition technology, customers enjoy the convenience of not having to exit from their cars or use tokens or interact with parking attendants when they park their vehicles. At the barrier, their license plate is scanned to identify the car. They can park and they are charged when they exit from the parking lot based on the time they have spent there. There is no need to even download any apps. Our interface is completely web based and gives customers the option to save their payment information when they make payment by scanning the QR code at the parking. Our technology takes customer recognition to the next level. Lack of parking and traffic congestion are huge issues in cities. The use of technology like ours can make life easier for customers, parking lot owners, and owners of public facilities, while helping us to minimize our carbon footprint.”

It is expected that in the future this technology could be implemented in collaboration with operators of restaurants, furniture and grocery stores, and supermarkets. Customers would be able to make purchases and seamlessly drive into the parking lots to collect them, without the need to get out of the car or to carry cash around.

As per CEO and Founder, Amirkhan Omarov, “The key benefits that our technology offers are recognition accuracy, contactless parking, online payment, dynamic pricing, analytics and reports, lower costs, and easy integration with any hardware and apps. Parking is one area where technology has not moved much with the times in recent years and this is why we have received interest from clients in the U.S., Europe, Middle East and SouthEast Asia. The high level of interest we have received from across the globe and our quick growth point to the importance of our technology.”

About Parqour

Parqour is a parking management software solution using proprietary license plate recognition technology with a 99.6% average capture rate for contactless parking. The company offers cost-efficient software that can be integrated into any third-party hardware, rescuing parking owners from vendor lock-in, and decreases CAPEX. Parqour helps owners of parking lots and large public facilities like hotels, theaters, shopping malls, business centers and residential complexes simplify the process of parking, optimize revenue and increase security, while providing a more seamless and improved customer experience. The company was founded in mid 2020 by Amirkhan Omarov, an experienced proptech professional, whose previous career was real estate investments and asset management. Apart from the U.S., the company is present in 20+ countries in Europe, Middle East, Central and South East Asia, serving 300+ parkings, keeping its fast growth and expansion by offering trials for the parking owners and managers.

“As we see the requirement of a digital infrastructure becoming mainstream, our rebrand will better position us to support our customers,” said Mr. Frumar.

Modii’s customers include several of the country’s largest and most prominent universities, as well as growing municipalities leading innovation from coast to coast.

Modii will maintain its commitment to providing excellent service to its customers. The company’s new logo and branding will be rolled out across all of its products and services in the coming weeks.
