Veterans Affairs (VA) is using the GSA schedule to procure Eaton Green Motion EV chargers for the VA Coatesville Medical Center in Pennsylvania.
“For decades, federal agencies have relied on Eaton to advance sustainable, resilient electrical infrastructure projects,” said Jim Dankowski, Federal Government marketing director at Eaton. “Today, our longstanding government taskforce and energy transition team are also helping simplify every aspect of EVSE projects – from the charger to the grid. With one of the largest and most experienced teams of power system engineers in the industry, we’re ready to make electric transportation work efficiently, sustainably and safely.”
Meanwhile, Eaton has been investing in its U.S. operations and manufacturing facilities, with the aim to support increased customer demand for its solutions for homes and businesses, as well as federal projects.
