The company will use the funds to install two DC fast chargers and 245 Level 2 chargers at multi-unit dwellings in Southern California, serving low-income and disadvantaged communities.
This funding marks another significant milestone in EVCS' commitment to expand access to reliable and affordable EV charging across the West Coast, focusing on maximising convenience for residents living in multi-family housing. Back in May, the company also announced it was awarded US$1.9m from the CEC’s Rural Electric Vehicle (REV) program, which will support the installation of 30 fast chargers in Northern and Central California.
"The 247 chargers funded by REACH will empower residents of multi-unit dwellings with robust charging options,” said Gustavo Occhuizzo, co-founder and CEO of EVCS. “Our mission has always been to lower the barriers to fast, affordable, and conveniently located public EV charging, and this is a significant step towards achieving that goal."
