Mayor Todd Gloria Thursday announced a pilot program that will use solar power to charge San Diego’s municipal electric vehicle fleet as part of his climate action goal to cut the city’s greenhouse gas emissions 50% by 2035.
The city is partnering with Sorrento Valley-based Beam Global to evaluate its Electric Vehicle Autonomous Renewable Charger for the next six months.
“This program allows the city to continue making progress on our Climate Action Plan while saving taxpayer dollars,” Gloria said. “The EV ARC solar EV charging stations will allow the city to take advantage of San Diego’s most plentiful natural resource and reduce emissions from city operations that harm human health and contribute to the climate crisis.”
