US Customs installs off-grid EV charging stations

By Michelle Froese | May 17, 2024

US Customs and Border Protection (US CBP) has selected Verdek‘s EV Oasis to energize its Ford F150 Lightnings that monitor the southern borders of New Mexico and Arizona.

The Verdek EV Oasis provides a mobile, fully off-grid charging station with dual ports, signifying a crucial advancement in Verdek’s commitment to promoting eco-friendly transportation. It’s specifically engineered to redefine the EV charging experience, tailored for versatility and environmental sustainability in remote or off-grid locations.

Powered by renewable energy, this charger provides vital accessibility to EV drivers where grid connectivity is scarce. Its design for rapid deployment allows it to bypass the complex processes associated with extensive infrastructure upgrades, permitting, and civil works.

Key attributes of the EV Oasis include:

  • Fast-charging speeds
  • Compatibility across various EV models
  • A sturdy off-grid power system

“Our goal is to make clean energy accessible to everyone, everywhere,” said Guy Mannino, CEO of Verdek. “The introduction of Verdek EV Oasis is a major step forward in our commitment to crafting a sustainable transportation future.”
