Thursday, November 3rd, 2022
Georgia-based electric vehicle (EV) charging company EnviroSpark has partnered with Atlanta-based nonprofits Georgia Aquarium, The Woodruff Arts Center, Marcus Jewish Community Center of Atlanta, Bobby Jones Golf Course, The Atlanta Humane Society and Atlanta Botanical Garden to install, maintain and operate electric vehicle charging stations as part of EnviroSpark’s growing network of branded stations.
The company will soon begin installation at Georgia Aquarium, The Woodruff Arts Center and the Atlanta Humane Society. EnviroSpark charging stations are already operational at Bobby Jones Golf Course, Marcus Jewish Community Center of Atlanta and Atlanta Botanical Garden.
EnviroSpark installs, manages and maintains the chargers over the life of the contract at no cost to the organizations.
“Our mission is to deliver reliable and accessible EV chargers wherever people live, work and play,” said EnviroSpark co-founder and CEO Aaron Luque. “We are so proud to partner with these iconic nonprofit institutions to help them seamlessly bring EV charging to their patrons.”
For nonprofits like Georgia Aquarium, the benefits of electric vehicles align with an organizational mission to preserve and protect the environment.
“We are always looking to find new ways to improve our impact on the environment,” said Anthony Rivera, senior vice president of operations and hospitality at Georgia Aquarium. “Our partnership with EnviroSpark gives us the ability to double the number of electric vehicle chargers in our parking deck. This allows us to provide an additional amenity to our guests while also expanding our environmental conservation efforts at home.”
The Woodruff Arts Center, which hosts visual and performing arts in Midtown, considers EV chargers an important way to add value for its visitors.
“We view EV charging as essential to serving our visitors and building a bright future for the Woodruff Arts Center,” said Executive Director of the Atlanta Symphony Jennifer Barlament.
“Whether you’re coming to hear a thrilling concert at the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, experiencing an intriguing play at the Alliance Theatre, or viewing a compelling exhibit at the High Museum of Art, you can charge your vehicle while you recharge your mind and spirit. We are grateful to partner with EnviroSpark to provide this important service.”
As the home of golf in Georgia, the Bobby Jones Golf Course is led by a dedicated group of volunteers who share a passion for Bobby Jones’ legacy and the historic golf course.
“EV charging stations were always in our renovation plans and EnviroSpark has been an ideal partner for our Foundation,” said Co-Founder and President of the Bobby Jones Golf Course Foundation, Inc. Martin Elgison. “They provide an easy, reliable turnkey solution that fits with our commitment to the environment and serves our customers' needs well.”
EnviroSpark is dedicated to expanding EV accessibility and increasing adoption nationwide by building reliable, fast-charge stations in convenient locations.
“Building stronger communities is at the heart of what we do at EnviroSpark,” said Andrew Bailey, Chief Strategy Officer of EnviroSpark. “As a mission-driven company, our partnerships with these Atlanta nonprofits mean so much to us. We’re thrilled to serve as a one-stop shop for nonprofits and other property owners seeking EV charging solutions.”
