Under the $2m contract awarded earlier this year, Lime deployed charging stations for a fleet of electric delivery vehicles in California, Connecticut, Massachusetts and New York.
Lime Operations executive vice president Jim Smith said Lime embraced the opportunity to provide a solution for electric vehicles that utilized our expertise in emerging smart grid technology.
Along with state and federal grants, electric vehicles offer reduced annual maintenance costs, more favorable utility rates, and integrated controls.
Lime president and CEO John O’Rourke said the company’s customers can achieve a savings of 30-40% by switching to electric delivery vehicles as part of their overall energy efficiency program design.
Lime is a provider of clean energy solutions including integrated energy engineering, consulting and the implementation of solutions that enable customers to reduce their facility’s energy consumption, lower their operating and maintenance costs and reduce their carbon footprint.
