The agreement sets the stage for Blink Charging and Miami Beach to electrify city fleets and provide charging solutions for employees, residents, and visitors. As part of the seven-year agreement, Blink will offer the city its advanced Series 7 and Series 8 chargers. These Level 2 EV chargers are multi-vehicle, Energy Star certified and ADA-compliant charging stations with the option to be installed in both wall-mounted and pedestal-mounted configurations, making them an ideal solution for the city.
The Blink Level 2 (L2) Series 7 charging stations are intended for charging the city’s fleet, allowing for two vehicles to charge simultaneously. The L2 Series 8 chargers are designed for commercial applications, where drivers can conveniently pay with credit card or a digital wallet. Blink will operate, maintain, and manage the EV charging stations for the city’s parking facilities, garages, and surface lots.
Blink will support the city’s mission in addressing environmental concerns related to climate change. In the past two months, Blink has reached similar agreements with the State of Utah and the Tennessee Valley Authority. These agreements followed the announcement of Blink’s strongest financial quarter in history.
“The City of Miami Beach has established a very ambitious goal of converting hundreds of city vehicles to hybrid, plug-in hybrid and electric vehicles in the near future,” explained city of Miami Beach manager, Alina T Hudak. “We are pleased to continue working with Blink, who not only shares our goals for green energy, but is also a local company that contributes to the Miami Beach economy.”
