通用汽车继续促进采用电动汽车,使员工工作场所的电动汽车充电可用性三倍
DETROIT,March 3, 2020 /3BL Media/- 通用汽车正在为员工提供电动汽车充电,甚至在其整个美国和加拿大设施中增加了3500个新的EV充电插头。这将是通用汽车当前提供的充电位置的三倍。
通用汽车总裁马克·鲁斯(Mark Reuss)说:“这是使每个人更容易使EV所有权更容易的道路,尤其是对于我们自己的员工而言。”“对基础架构的收费对于更广泛接受电动汽车至关重要,我们将继续竭尽所能改善它,包括员工和所有客户。我们鼓励其他公司也这样做。”
增加消费者可用的电动汽车充电地点的数量是不断增长的电动汽车采用的主要原因之一。通用汽车认为,充电应该无处不在,并正在与收费提供商合作,为在哪里收费提供EV所有者的选择。凭借雪佛兰螺栓电动汽车的内部流行,以及众所周知的GMC和凯迪拉克车型将来会推出,GM致力于确保所有员工能够方便地作为员工EV拥有者人口向其车辆充电成长。
目前,通用汽车可帮助业主与经过认证的家庭充电电工通过Qmerit和recently made enhancements to its能源协助feature in the latest version of the myChevrolet app to provide Chevrolet Bolt EV owners improved access to a nationwide network of public charging locations and real-time location data.
工作场所充电是许多电动汽车驾驶员的主要充电来源,但是100万EV驾驶员中有90万无法在工作中收取车辆的费用。1工作场所充电器的可用性可以鼓励采用EV,驾驶员的可能性高六倍。在其工作场所提供充电功能时驱动电动汽车。2
EV/AV商业化和基础设施副总裁Rick Spina说:“超过90%的电动汽车所有者在家中,工作或两者结合。”“我们有2022年型号的GMC的新电动汽车,并计划在2023年型号的赛车上,我们希望使员工尽可能方便地享受EV所有权的回报。”
Workplace charging is valuable for employees and businesses alike. GM hopes to show other companies the value of investing in workplace charging, as it is an affordable employee benefit, supports talent attraction and retention, and showcases the company’s commitment to sustainability.
GM will prioritize charging installation sites based on employee need and will work with charging infrastructure companies to begin installing the charging locations starting in late 2020. GM employees will have access to Level 2 charging, ideal for efficiently charging EVs throughout a workday. Level 2 chargers can charge the current Chevrolet Bolt EV model up to a speed of 25 miles every hour.3
GM recently accelerated its commitment to power 100 percent of global operations with renewable energy by 2040. In the U.S., 100 percent of facilities will be powered with renewable energy by 2030, which means the EVs charged at GM campuses will eventually all be powered by a green grid.
This EV charging investment is a continuation of GM’s commitment to an all-electric future. GM also announced that the底特律-Hamtramckassembly plant will be GM’s first plant that is 100 percent devoted to electric vehicles and will build the newGMC Hummer EV 2022型号. In 2019, GM announced a collaboration withLG Chem批量生产电池电池以用于将来的电池电动车,并与Qmeritto create a more accessible at-home charging solution.
