Blink Signs Supplier Contract with Tennessee Valley Authority for EV Charging Solutions
Blink Charging has signed a two-year supplier contract with the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) for EV charging solutions like Level 2 (L2) charging equipment and DC Fast Chargers (DCFC) to be utilized in public and commercial fleet applications.
“We are excited about the initiative Blink and TVA are creating together to strengthen EV adoption in the Tennessee Valley,” said Jim Nemec, Vice President of Sales and Business Development for Blink Charging. “With TVA celebrating its remarkable 90th anniversary... in the energy and environmental protection fields, we at Blink eagerly embrace the opportunity to align ourselves with this organization to help shape the future landscape of transportation electrification.”
The contract will help TVA access Blink’s Level 2 Series 7 charger, 50kW DCFC, 75kW DCFC, and 150kW DCFC options. Blink is prepared to deliver and produce on-demand charging equipment to not only address the needs of drivers but also support a variety of consumer and fleet EV makes and models.
Along with regional EV stakeholders, TVA aims to have more than 200,000 EVs on Tennessee Valley roads by 2028. TVA is focused on funding and developing a foundational public charging network across its seven-state service area.
TVA previously launched the Fast Charge Network program to deploy public DC Fast Chargers at intervals not exceeding 50 miles along the main travel corridors within the TVA region in 2021.
