Florida is 2nd in the nation in the number of registered electric vehicles and that number is growing quickly. Our neighbor to the north, Georgia, is a nationwide leader in EV charging infrastructure, led in large part by efforts at Georgia Power. Pairing the dynamic Florida market with the Georgia-led innovation, an entire EV ecosystem is on the horizon for our Southeast region. A single plant in Georgia is slated to produce batteries for 200,000 cars per year starting in 2022 while the Florida Department of Transportation has multiple programs dedicated to building up EV infrastructure, like fast chargers, along highway and evacuation corridors. ChargePoint, Optimus Energy Solutions, and others are aggressively supporting these efforts with industry-leading design and installation services as well as quality education.

Optimus Solar is now an LG PRO Solar Program partner! Our team is humbled to be associated with the highest quality in Solar Energy equipment; this includes our relationship with LG Solar as a Pro Partner.

The Virtuous Cycle of solar + EV adoption is a critical concept to any domestic economy, especially here in the southeast United States where this combination of electricity production and transportation can supercharge our energy, transportation, environmental and financial well-being. We have previously discussed this concept and it bears revisiting as EV and solar adoption continue to march forward.
