Friday, April 29th, 2016

Leaders from Georgia Power and Post Properties joined together at a special event at Post's Atlanta headquarters. At the event, which also included electric vehicle test drives and sustainability focused activities including urban gardening, Georgia Power recognized the premier residential apartment company for its commitment to EVs. Following the installation of 75 EV charging stations at 15 Atlanta-area properties, Post received a rebate check for $71,500 from Georgia Power. Post's initiative is the single largest charging project undertaken by any multi-family housing organization in Atlanta to date.

"We congratulate Post Properties for recognizing the value that offering EV charging can bring to residents and visitors to their properties," said Pedro Cherry, senior vice president for Georgia Power's Metro Atlanta region. "Having EV charging in place where drivers live and work is an essential component of our strategy for growing the EV market in Georgia and we appreciate the continued collaboration with Post."
